Those bikes at last year's Cirque were owned by Ralph Carnevale, who has one of the most amazing bicycle collections. He lives in the beautiful Shenandoah Valley of Virginia now, although originally he was a pro bike shop owner in Southern California during the hey days of the vintage era.
I can't wait to see what Ralph brings this year.

There was a Colnago TT bike at last year's Cirque which I think fits the bill. Here's a link from Dale's excellent photo series posted on the Cirque site:
