Congratulations to Dede Demet Barry who rode that beautiful lugged steel Mariposa to third in yesterday's First Union Liberty Classic race:

Although I only saw Dede and her bike at speed, the Mariposa sure made those aluminum Masi's look pretty crude by comparison. Classic bicycle sightings were a bit sparse...but I did see a nice Cinelli Super Corsa, a puff Robin Hood, and some new Cuevas frames in lugged steel.

old daughter) behind his Ron Cooper for the 45 mile round trip next year.
