Thanks Liesl, it's 38 y-o and on its 3rd rebuild.  The paint is original, 
but otherwise, only the headset and brakes calipers are original.  It's 
been of course kept inside, but there are a few marks on the paint where my 
daughter used to climb on it when I had it on a turbotrainer.  The photo 
was just to show all my bag options - well, except putting a small trunk on 
the front rack, which is normal  I love the rando bag for the winter, and 
also for picnics.  The small MUTl bag on the rear rack holds a 25-oz. Laken 
thermo, so I can carry 75 oz. water total.  On a 3800-calorie ride in the 
hill country last summer we sweated 100oz.  The 3rd bottle always comes in 
handy riding with friends who inevitably don't bring enough for 
themselves...my best riding buddy dehydrated on me at about mile 40 last 
month...we had to stop, tach him down, get him wet, and the last 5 miles 
were creeping slow.  I live in steep hills, and it's the only bike I own 
that is easy getting around my neighborhood.  I have it geared 22" to 104" 
in about 5" steps, making it very flexible.
