Peregrination

By mrdaniel

Bought another bike!

So I was driving through outskirts of Jakarta (Bekasi) and saw small street-side bicycle shop (Toko Sepda) and this old Dutch bicycle on display.

After some hard bargaining down from $130 I got it for $80. It dates from '60s from Holland. It's rideable, if a little rickety, but with a bit of fixing up it should quite the ride.

Turn's out there is quite an interest in vintage bicycles in Indonesia, know locally as 'sepeda onthel', so looking forward to taking out on a car-free Sunday.
