YEA, thats right! And since I found BIG BEN'S post so appropriate, being both uplifting and separarating, I will take this opportunity to announce the next meeting of the Brooklyn Velodrome Vintage Wheelmen, "BVVW". We will meet on Saturday May 10, 2003 at Emey's Bike shop on 17th St. in New York City. Yes, it feels just like home. Oh the smell of campy grease in the morning! Uh, evening. Attendees will be WOW'd by varied jpegs on my laptop of lots of interesting bike stuff and even a few yet untaken photos of stuff at Larz on April 27 and The Cirque on May 2,3,4.Have YOU made your arrangements yet? PIZZA at John"s of Bleeker St. (I take mine w/ mushrooms please) will be copiously consumed along with Budweiser on tap. Ben, how do ya think of this stuff?
John T.Pergolizzi Omnipotent Despot BVVW N.Y.C. Manhattan to Point Lookout and back today in glorious SUN! 70 miles.
