Subject: [CR]the other Trexlertown swap?

I had great time at the T-Town swap yesterday. Sold a bunch of stuff and saw a lot of old friends...

My booth was back to back with Joe Sailing's. I told him that he got second place in the first bicycle race that I ever saw; the Tour of Westbury. I reminded him that he was away for the last half of the race with a kid named Billy Cooney and Francois Mertens.

Joe remembered the race and told me that Francois actually got second and he got third. Joe said that he was so cooked on the last lap that when Francois dove into the last turn Joe didn't realize that he was turning and thought that he was just pulling off after his pull. Joe went straight instead of turning and almost crashed.

Anyway, at the swap meet Sam Fitzsimmons asked me if I was staying over for "tomorrow"? He said that somebody was having a bicycle swap meet in the field next door to the velodrome, and that the guy has been holding it there for 17 years. We got interrupted and I failed to get the details from Sam. Any of you guys know about this swap, or ever gone to it?

Thanks, Jamie Swan - Northport, N.Y.
