You know, I find it curious that Dave and others are so amazed that someone would spend $2,000 for a vintage frame (considering what new frames cost these days) and it amazes me more that they would go so far as to insult him for it.
I mean, we are talking about our very own Charles Andrews here. Charles, who has such a wonderful bike collection and who has been so helpful on so many occasions to those of us with questions. Charles, who knows enough about restoration to have won best in show at this past year's Cirque. I think we ought to cut him a little slack, OK? It's his money, his frame.
Besides, he'll probably make back much of the cost of that frame (and have you all eating crow) when the DeRosa takes best of show (and all that fabulous prize money) at next year's Cirque.
