Here in Cuba there are no specialised shops for bicycles and accessories. We get things because someone brings them from another country or they get them from relatives abroad or they buy them online, very expensive purchases, because Cuba is always the last card in the deck. High-performance sportsmen and women also bring back things to sell when they return from their trips. And so people set up businesses with these things... improvised businesses. They sell without licences, without guarantees. It's a mess. This bike belonged to a foreign student who brought it from the US and had it for the duration of his scholarship. He put it up for sale and yesterday he was on his way back to his country.

It does make me happy. It's just the right size for me and apparently it was meant to be mine.

;)

PS: it is looking as good as new. Maybe later I will restore it in terms of paint. The badge and some things... I tell you, it's a project for me.

Thank you!
