Subject: [CR] Request for stories/comments: Article on Mike Barry & Mariposa


CR list, I'm in the process of writing an article on Mike Barry and Mariposa for a Toronto bicycling magazine called Dandyhorse (www.dandyhorse.ca). Mike officially retired last year, so the idea of the article is to present fellow Torontonians with a history of the Mariposa marque, of the local cycling scene, and of handbuilt bikes.

Most of the article will be based on my interview with Mike, but I'd also love to hear stories from customers, friends, fellow framebuilders, etc. If you have a story, testimonial, etc., please send me an email.

I'll be sure to provide a link to the story when it appears (if there's an online version!)
