Angel, Just based on past personal experience with Ernesto Colnago and vintage bikes, at least at the time I asked, he had no interest in his early bik es. The only thing that mattered at the time was people who wanted to bu y new Colnagos. It makes sense, since Ernesto does not profit from early bikes being still present; especially ones you can not buy right now an d feed the bottom line financially. Perhaps he will have a slightly diff erent attitude when he's in San Diego for the Gran Fondo.

The Tour of California will finish here in San Diego County about a week earlier. Track racing season (outdoors) starts on Tues, April 1. 2009. Then the San Diego Custom Bicycle Show happens April 3-5, 2009. Come to San Diego for a vacation, see the show, ride your bikes all over the pla ce! We scheduled the light rain and such for the Buick Invitational Golf Tournament (happening right now) this weekend so we can have perfect wa rm weather for the bike show in April. Make sure you and all of your cyc ling friends come to the show and book your rooms at the Town and Countr y Hotel where the event is being held.
