Our family has a few bikes I've never written about. I've mentioned my French bike and I'll write about it in detail one day, though I may never ride it again. Today, I write about a bike that isn't mine, though I ride it, and will ride it for however long it takes. The bike's name is "Seth." Seth, you see, is the property of "the Dish of Everett." Seth is a Nishiki Kokusai. The Kokusai was the predecessor to the "International" which preceeded the "Olympic." Myself, I'm the idiot she married. Seth has a special place. You see, the dish has known Seth for longer than she's known me.

The Wright's Saddle was Originally from Frankenbike. REAL Comfy
Way back When, Before Taiwan and China, even Japan tried to be American
They Don't Make Head Badges Like These Anymore.
Sure, There's Some Pitting in the Chrome, but Steel IS Real
Honestly, that Pitting is Entirely my own Fault

Look at the Lugwork Details. Luscious!
Who Says the Japanese are not Artists?

I believe I understand.
A worthy bike.
Love the headbadge, love the bike!
Why does Seth's friend not ride?
Rehabilitation from a motorcycle accident while riding on the beach. It wasn't serious, but us older types heal slow, not that Seth's owner isn't still a teenager, at least at heart.
It is a very nice headbadge. I can't say I have seen a good one like that in a while.
Peace :)
