Too small for me, barely, which is a bummer in the grand scheme of bikes I would love to own, but a blessing and marriage preserver in light of this being Christmas week, tough times, think of others, yada yada (jk). But if anyone is hyped about Columbine as much as I am, and wants me to go visit this beauty, let me know and I guess I'll force myself to go to a cool shop and see a great bike. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ There are a lot of bikes I didn't buy when I had a chance, but the one that haunts me just a bit was maybe a decade ago at Trexlertown, when I turned down a gorgeous pearl (?) white Columbine for an absurdly low price, maybe $600 complete, near the end of the day. Or is it all a stupid dream?

The old shirts read, "Jack Taylor make proper Tandems" Columbine is beautiful bikes.
