In the short time I've owned it this bike has seen a lot. At this point only the frame, crankset, bottom braket, and derailleurs are original (which is impressive given the amount of use they've seen). It's my everything ride. Daily riding. Touring. Group rides. Grocery rides. Beer rides. Gravel. Brevets. I've been hit by cars on it, broken my arm on it, ridden it from Austin, TX to Marathon, TX, and every time I hop on it I realize that I'll probably never be rid of the damn thing.
