Greetings to All:
My name is Rick Powell. I've been riding and collecting bicycles for thirty-eight years, and have a modest collection of on-topic machines as well as a few from KOFs. Most of my vintage bicycles are either ones that I raced on many years ago and never parted with, or ones that I wished I could afford at that time and finally got. I am friends/acquaintances with several list members, and want to thank all of them for their help with my various projects over the years. You know who you are! In fact, it was during a conversation with one of these friends that he suggested I try the list for some apparently hard to find items. Does anyone have any NOS dark blue, sort of a navy, brake cable housing they would be willing to sell? This used to be available in virtually any color as I recall, but seems to be a rarity now. I only need enough for one bicycle. I also am looking of a pair of NOS Christophe toe clips, old logo, in size large. Please let me know.
I'm looking forward to seeing what sort of information is available from what appears to be a huge well of expertise. I doubt that I will have anything to add, but certainly will find many useful things, both knowledge and parts, for my projects. Thanks very much.
