Frankenbike Triumphs & Tragedies

So, on a Potomac River (Musky & Walleye scouting) fishing trip in July, I found this Old Ross Mountain Bike half covered in water and mud. It looked like some weary cross-country cyclist was swept away in a bygone flood and all that was left was this seized-up old bicycle - I've never seen so many bottle cages on one frame.

I thought maybe I could salvage at least a (badly pitted) crank from it, but as is often realized when you are an incurable pack rat, one man's treasure can end up as your trash...

Bottle cages anyone? Getcha next time...
