My first "real" racing bike......

....was a Benotto. Not exactly like the one above - but close enough. Of course, mine had brakes, toe clips, road bars, no sloping stem and a 6-speed freewheel in the back. So, yeah, not exactly the same bike.....but looks similar.

My one regret - getting rid of it. Would've made a great art piece which my wife would encourage me to throw away.
