Jamie, many thanks for the wonderful photos. One of these years I would love to participate as well!
I have a couple questions regarding the identification of a couple of the cyclists, if that is possible.
1.) I imagine the older gent with the Bianchi cap & jersey signing t-shirts has not only been a frequent L'Eroica rider, but perhaps also a former racer form many decades past?

... now THIS is a man who looks truly at home on his bike, and with a stance reminiscent of Coppi. Wonderful. I hope I will look so well seated at his age.

2.) A fascinating old bike. Would you know this rider wearing the long sleeved jersey with the Italian national colors? Again, a very classy looking bike and cyclist:

Of course, I'd also love to ID any of our illustrious, heroic, List Members, as well.
Again, many thanks for sharing your experience!
