Hi all, Just finished a chilly, but sunny, New Year's eve solo ride on my real/unreal D. Millar Scorpion Bonum. Spent a relaxed couple of hours dodging the local wildlife (2 deer, 1 fox, & a herd? of wild turkeys). Also spent the time counting the year's blessings. One of them was the CR list. There aren't many/any vintage lightweight bike afficianados in or around Ridgetop, Tennessee, so the CR list is a a real enjoyment for me. Thanks to Dale's efforts, & all the list contributors, my appetite for lugged steel continues to be fed. Even the oc- casional spitting contests have broadened & enriched my knowledge of handcrafted bikes & bits. I hope the new year brings health & joy to you all. Best lurker regards, Greg Brooks,Ridgetop,TN, USA
