Dale and others,

The shop that papa Grewal ran was Sherpa Sports. They took out the original ads for Guerciotti in Bicycling! magazine. There were always quite a lot of riders of both marques (Guerciotti and Monte) in the Aspen area. My uncle, who flew for United, would run into Monte quite a lot on trips in to Denver and on the Aspen commuter as well. Quite a character as you say.

Ken Wehrenberg, Hermann, MO--learned to build wheels at one of the other shops in Aspen, would see the Grewals out riding on Independence Pass in the afternoons after work
