Alfredo, The swap meet is the day before the ride. Your answer depends how easy to fit a bike to Alfredo. There were many bicycles for sale. Depending on your riding ability, the gearing and stem size may or may not fit your needs. Last year, I could have bought a Masi Special for 800e, swapped out some parts and I would have been set. So I guess the answer is that there are no guarantees. You may get lucky and then you could be sh*t out of luck too. You could contact Blufreccia and see if they will rent you a bike as a back up should you strike out at the bikeswapping jumbled, parts exchanging whatever.

Any event, a bunch of us CR listmembers will be there so please introduce yourself to us.
