CMAW

I've visited this nice forum before a few times, mainly to browse the online catalogues. But hey, today I'm going to indulge myself and show off a little (you Gitanophiles will probably not mind).

Found this beauty in pretty good shape here in Brussels and needed only a replacement for the seatpost and saddle. First real ride scheduled on thursday.
