Headed out at 3:30 AM, south to the Old Pueblo, truck full of stuff to sell or trade. With three blocks of 4th Ave. set aside for the day, it was more like a street festival, with vendors offering breakfast burritos, fresh pastries, and cold drinks. It was chilly at 5:00, but t-shirt weather by mid-morning. Had the chance to chat with some CR list members, sold a bunch of stuff, saw a B. Bayliss Hetchins (black and turquoise, just a beautiful bike), even saw my dentist pushing around his new steed. Tried to trade a pretty Stronglight Crankset for a crown, but nothing doing.

Andy Gilmour displayed a bunch of new bikes, and had a Dura-Ace ten speed Gruppo to show off. Wonder how it would look on my Dawes Galaxy?

Thanks to Greg and Chris and Tucson GABA for the great day.
