70 year old legs

[GuyCourtois]

Hi All,
thanks for enrollment. I live in Scotland but spend a lot of time in France.
My 70 year old legs are fond of steel frames.

Currently I ride 2 French steel road bikes, an 80s Guy Courtois and a later from Ouest Cycles. Both French local cycle builders.
Bianchi Volpe - like an early gravel bike (but heavier!!)
Dahon Folding bike converted with a 8 spd igh
Circe Helios tandem now fitted with electric assist
80s Mercier 5 speed Town bike

Looking forward to benefitting from the experience of other Forum members.

Well some photos of the bikes would be good, they sound like a nice selection.

Hello from another pair of seventy year old legs who also likes steel frames but have a couple of aluminium ones thrown in for good measure.

Welcome to cycle chat. I have the same vintage legs. They were made to last in those days.

Bienvenue from another to be 70 next month and with very good legs. Which part of France do you visit much?
