This sums it up
I have mentioned (at nausea) a few times before that I sometimes hanker for the past. This bicycle from English maker Pashley sums this up quite nicely. It is a 1930's racer but made with modern materials and equipment. This is ME! (The price, however, is far from that era ). With wooden mudgards and a 3-speed hub it looks the part

I had one like that in 1956 but it had solid steel brake lines.
Did I miss an Omega connection somewhere? Shall I get a Mod to move this to another Forum?
