Don't have a storage locker, but I have a double garage full of nothing but bikes. If you have no French bikes, your life is truly impoverished. Latest French acquistion - an all Spidel late 70's/ early 80's top of the line Andre Bertin. Incredibly, $170 plus shipping on eBay. I love the guys who don't like French bikes, they leave bargains like this for me.

Regards,

Jerry Moos
