I've got a couple of project bikes that are getting built up and have finally run out of my stash of Campy 15 mm. BB bolts. If anyone may have one or two sets available with washers I would surely appreciate it. I do have a couple of sets of silver Campy 14 mm BB bolts, no idea what they were originally for that I could offer in trade or to someone who may desire them.
The Cirque' was, if anything, even better than the last time. I keep thinking that the growing crowd may make it unwieldy but it just means I get to meet more really cool people. That and getting to know the ones I've met before that much better. I keep bringing the same bikes from my humble collection, and am amazed at the fabulous bikes that others bring. And as I'm oohing and aahing over others bikes, others are telling me that mine are cool too. Charley Young put it nicely when he said that even though there are people there with collections of 50+ fabulous bikes, "They want yours!". The restaurants were memorable in that you almost always were seated with someone new to meet and you hardly noticed the food for the conversation. As Eddy Albert said, news, television, anything that wasn't the Cirque' was totally forgotten for four very short days. Packing up to go home was dissapointing even though we do have a life elsewhere.
And the deals at the swap! Including the one I missed! Rats! I've gotta keep my eyes more wide open! (Keep me in mind if you decide that Geoffrey Butler's too small Paul)
As ever, Thanks again to Dale for hosting this wonderfull event and list. Such a nice group of people!
Happy trails,
Dan Artley in Lovely Parkton, Maryland where I finally got the lawn mowed the first time (no time to do it before Cirque')
