Autumn Glory

autumn leaves bike
Well, as they say, the early bird gets the... photo of the pretty bike with the pretty leaves and the pretty girl in front of MIT. I'm glad I resolved to rise earlier and photograph in the morning.

Would you call the color of her bike 'chestnut'?

If she's on a vintage schwinn, the color of their 70's step thru is "sierra brown"

We call it "copper" around here--the color of my wife's vintage Schwinn. Lovely photo, no matter what the color, though.

Sierra Brown is much darker than this bike, and, this is not a 70's step-through. I would point out the shape of the headbadge and the 3-pc crankset for the most obvious identifying features. My guess tends more to it being one of the mid-later 80's Asian "Schwinns".

What a fantastic photo! I guess there are some plus-sides to getting up early.
