Mine's a hand made bike I bought from a little shopowner who also sold
at the Orange Country Swap Meet in California where I bought it in
1988. It's one of the older mountain bike "cruisers" with the big seat
and wide handlebars. Sort of heavy, but as I ride for exercise that's
fine. Deep sky blue color I have never seen on another bike since.

Cost a measly $180 and I wouldn't trade it for the world. In 15 years
all I have had to fix is a brake cable.

Yes, it's a magic bike. ;-)
