> Dorothy and Preston were great folks to do business with: warm,

> relationship we had formed with them, as well as the jerseys they made
> for us. Preston was also an excellent time trialist in the Master's
> categories and I believe that he and his riding partner were mixed
> National TT tandem champs one year.

> We will miss them and our thoughts go out to their family at this time.
