Hi all: Age 52..been riding without training wheels since I was 7 and continued since then.
Classic stable is reduced somewhat as the LeChampion went to an old friend who wanted it and the Grand Record was sold too.... -still have two Motobecane Grand Jubile's (1974 and 1980), -a Waterford built Riv All Rounder, -A '92 B'stone X0-1 (they ride very differently from the Riv AR so I keep both), -a Kestrel 500SCi, -a '90 Merckx Gran Prix 753, -a '91 DeRosa Nuovo Classico (TSX tubing), -and a 80's Glen Erickson built Rodriguiz tourer (a model for the original Riv Long Low?).
Personal assistant to Kathleen and Keeper and head mechanic of her (Kathleen's) Mercian.
Still want a Condor like on the cover of Richard's Bicycle Book and someday to replace my Mercier. Randy Nelson Seattle
