An enigma. This is a serious bike and locked accordingly but it leaves me wondering why such a bike is in left in such a position. The area speaks of neglect and devastation in contrast to the bikeI like such puzzles
 
I always like pictures of bikes! Looks like it might be set up for cyclocross: canti brakes, top-tube cable routing, beefy tires. I wouldn't stray far from this bike if it were mine.
 
I do like a metal frame when so much of cycling is carbon. Seems analogous to film in a digital world. Of course you have indexed shifting... Indexed shifting:friction shifters::Matrix metering:Leica accessory meter.
 
Thanks guys for the kind and interesting comments.
