Greetings,
Last Friday, at Nelson Millers' home, I had the opportunity to add a few faces to some names I have known for quite some time. It was very nice to spend some time with some other old bike junkies. The Seattle area has some truly wonderful vintage bike folk. Mark Petry has already given an account of the gathering, so I wont repeat any of the details. However, I have just posted several photos that I have taken of some of the bikes Nelson had on display. As you can see from the photos, these bikes are fabulous! His vintage bicycles are as nearly as outstanding as the stories he tells while showing them off. Thank you Nelson for the opportunity to photograph these lovely machines. I would also like to mention, at Nelsons request, that the Urago build up and the Carlton "International" frame restoration was done by fellow list member Jerry Collier. Great job Jerry! You can view the photos on my website at the following address:

Included in the photos are a 1975 Hetchins Magnum Opus, 1948 Carlton International, mid-60's Carlton, 1955 Urago, 1939 Claud Butler, 1955 Paris, 1953 Maclean, 1937 Maclean, 1986 Condor, etc. ENJOY!
BTW- If anyone would like to submit any information or photos for the site, let me know. They would be greatly appreciated.
Best wishes,
