Hah! Maybe if Heron, Rivendell, and Waterford all pooled their resources together, we could sponsor one Postie, and it wouldn't be Lance (still not enough money). Maybe a CR-sponsored team? All the team members would ride old Paramounts, Masis, and Colnagos equipped with appropriate vintage components!
