Great to see the list back. I raced over to the Classic Rendevous site to look at the new bits, but didn't see the Interbike pictures. I assume they weren't up yet this a.m., but if so, where did you hide them?

Also I like the dellaSanta pics. One bit of info to add; Roland was Greg LeMond's frame builder for a long time, certainly through his amateur career and I think a little bit into his pro years.

I never did give my pedigree when I first joined the list, so I'll toss it in now;

39 years old (no really, I am 39, at least for 3 more months) Been riding since 16. 1st bike: a too-small Raleigh record. 1st decent bike: a Trek 400 series. 1st super bike: 1980 Marinnoni sport touring style, mostly Campy SR pro, red with yellow panels (the ketchup and mustard bike to my "friends") Current stable: Marinnoni, '73 Raleigh Pro, '84 Trek 720 touring, '75 Peugeot PX10, Simonato Racing of unknown vintage, Cannondale Tandem, and a cute lil 80's Mondia Road (the small frame pictured on Classic Rendevous. It's my wife's, but I get to feed it). The Raleigh, Peugeot and Simonato I got as frames and built up. None of these are concours restos, but are grizzled road veterans with inevitable scars of honorable service. They all get ridden, albeit slowly. Current Projects: Cirrus 7 touring frame (all reynolds, no fork, anyone ever hear of these?) and a Raleigh International that's at the painter's. I thought I could buy one or two classic bikes and then let it go, but now I've got the monkey on my back. If you need a big road bike, drop me a line!
