New bike!

A 1985 Miyata 1000 came up on craigslist, and I was able to get it!

Maybe this will be the Rinko bike?

Looks good! Install some good bar tape asap :)
I don't know how you rode in snow with those tires!
Top tube has paint damage? or just dirt?

Oh, that entire front end will be replaced I think. Doesn't appear to
be original.

I didn't ride it in the snow -- I wheeled it!

Yes, minor paint damage and some gashes on the other side. This is a
touring tube, so I suspect not too much of a problem.
