+:summary: Introduction to a project bike: Dawes Super Galaxy
+
+
+I just bought a new (to me) bicycle, an old-ish Dawes Super Galaxy.  It is in reasonably
+good condition, but has two issues that are immediately obvious:
+
+* The frame has a number of scratches, chipped paint, light surface rust and a 
+  small dent on the top tube.
+* The bottom bracket has plastic retaining rings.  These have a reputation for
+  breaking when you attempt to remove them.
+
+It came with front and rear racks, mudguards and mostly Shimano Deore LX components.
+
+There is a list of things to do on this bike sooner or later, each of which will become
+the topic of an article.  In descending order of urgency:
+
+1. Remove surface rust, prime, paint and clear coat the chipped areas.
+2. Try to remove and replace the bottom bracket, something with metal retaining
+   rings.
+3. Repack the hub bearings.
+4. Replace chain and cassette.
+5. Clean and repack headset.
+6. Replace cables and bar tape.
