Does anyone here know that Miyata used to be a bike company. I was at this one lady's house, because my bro would probably get a bike soon and she had one she could spare. But this lady was like crazy with bikes she must have have like 15 bikes in her possesion. Any way i saw this old bike mounted on those things that keep it in one place so you can pedal indoors. i call it a bike treadmill. Something was weird about it, but what was it!!! Then it hit me the name of the company on the bike was a uni company MIYATA!!!! Did any of you guys know this?

Witness an average man, flesh skewered deeply and imbedded with shark fishing hooks! Marvel as a mere mortal fueled only by free will... Ferociosly Pulls, twists, and stretches hooked apendages to transform the pastey dermal landscape of his own hide and finally ascend to new heights, literally!" This is NO ILLUSION! What you will see is real... and remember ladies and gentlemen all this done without the assistance of his unicycle. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ hungfromhooks's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/6954 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/34776

Ahhh.... I think you're thinking about Bianchi bicycles that come in that color. Bianchi calls the color 'celeste'. Although they do make bikes in other colors now. I have a black Bianchi track bike.
The bike I saw was silver (colored). That color is weird but it's Miyata's color. My mom was looking trough a uni catalog and looked at a Miyata and was like "eww what a girly color. And i was like "mom that's like they're signature!!"
Sometimes there's no getting to her😄

My first road bike is a Miyata. It was all steel and is older them I am. It was also made for someone like 6 feet tall (I'm 5'6"😉. In order to stop, I'd have to look for a curb to stand next to or a pole to balance on. The bike is still being road on a near daily basis. I gave it to a friend of mine who shipped it to California and uses it to get from his apartment to class and back. My friend even got a ticket while riding it. It was a ticket for riding the bike across a cross walk. The ticket was for $143. The moral of the story is, never ride you bike across a street when there is a cop around.
Oh, and to answer your question, I did know that Miyata made bikes.
