Is my Touring 520 allowed here?

To my understanding, these are the same frame as the MultiTracks, but with drop bars.

‘92 with some goodies from Velo Orange, Brooks, MKS, and Crane.

My favoritest whip. ‘92 Trek 520

Buddy gifted me this bike after deciding he didn’t ride it enough. A big ole Velo Orange order later and it has become my regular ride to work.

All that’s left is a wheel upgrade, any suggestions on what hubs I should lace to some polished Cliffhangers?

Does anyone else get unreasonably excited about descaling day?

100 filters, ~100 days. I’m about 2.5 years into owning my KBGV and every empty box still feels like an achievement in a silly way. It’s almost ceremonial. Anyone else out there that remembers to descale and actually enjoys it?

Shakedown ride revealed to me that a $12 rack will indeed perform like a $12 rack.

Here is a gear review of the no name rack I ordered off Amazon: it performed exactly as I should have expected. Light loads only folks.
