Both bicycles were purchased prior to the mid-80s, when I was earning more money than I knew what to do with (thank you US Military). The green one was my purchased with the better part my Coast Guard re-enlistment bonus. At the time, I was commuting to work by bicycle so it was a rational purchase.
That was a whole marriage ago, not to mention at a whole different income level. At the time the blue bicylce was purchased, my monthly mortgage payment exceeded my current monthly take-home pay. I moved out of the house and into an apartment a few months after the bicycle was purchased (a much happier man). Ironically, my ex has (or maybe had) an identical female frame model. Don't let my "organized garage" fool you -- the picture was taken after several non-stop weekend days of furious uncluttering. It still looks about the same but in a few weeks the wife will be looking for a place to store our FOUR patio sets (complete with table and chairs) and all of the yard gardening foo-foo crap she will need to store indoors for the winter.
