I have finally signed up and will be bringing an Alex Singer (early 70's) along with a new JP Weigle (something a tad different... won't say anymore...).
Other than that I am thinking of bringing my pair of Holdsworth Professional's (road & track) that belonged to Les West along with letters from him to me and some signed pictures, wool/road and silk/track jersey's, etc.
Looking forward to seeing everyone; especially given how quiet I have been on & off list this past year; busy with work and family - all good, just not enough bike time with CR list friends.
