For this September's Velo Rendezvous 7 event in Pasadena there is an Added Event not to be missed:
Ted Ernst's display of original fixed gear and track bikes from the 1920's to the 1960's. Professional and semi-racers, American and foreign. The bikes are not restored but as Ted has received them and they are assembled with period correct parts. Don't miss this chance to see how people actually rode fixed gear bikes over 50 years ago, in races and touring. Shelby, Iver Johnson, Schwinn, Durkopp, Rickert, CCM, and other unknown builders using BSA fittings. An opportunity to touch and inspect seldom seen marques from the halcyon era of cycling's glory days!
