on this morning's commute i saw this abandoned bike along N street. perhaps someone had a few too many beers downtown last night and tried to ride home, eventually opting to walk the rest of the way? it looked to be of late 70's vintage and low-end quality, but nevertheless it was complete in decent shape. what caught my eye was the AAU logos on the headtube fairing and chainring guard. did the AAU try to promote cycling in the late 70's? i wonder if these bikes were part of some grassroots program back then.
