Heres what I found in my rear brake caliper (PIC)

My rear brake had been grabbing for a couple of weeks so I got bored and took the caliper apart. Here is what I found...

The fluid looked like chocolate milk and it had a bunch of gunk in it. It's all cleaned up and after lubing the brake petal pivot, it works great!

Yep, Two of the non-running bikes I drug home had brake system fluid that looked like that........That is why I change out my brake fluid every two years......chris3
