I bought it new in '97, and ride it like I stole it. It's served me well, but I expected (ie. hoped) it would last my lifetime.
Now I'm just figuring out what to do with it. I can't just throw it away, and the last thing I need is another frame on the wall.
I could take her out for gentle strolls in the park on Sunday afternoons...

That's a really strange place for it to break, right across the weld too, have you had a stack recently?

No wrecks recently. I sent pics to Litespeed, and after deliberation they decided the bike had lived it's useful lifespan and was not covered under their lifetime warranty nor repairable.
They did offer me a deal on a new frame. :cry:
It was my ride of choice for most of 14 years so I guess I can't complain too much. I'm just glad I found it before a catastrophic failure at an inopportune moment.
