David, has taught this guy very little about vintage lightweights and to this day he knows very little about them. The guy got lucky " struck by lightning twice on the same day" (the Herse and the Meteor) He didn't know what it was when he bought it and almost had his son remove the Rene Herse decals from the bike. He thought that was the name of the previous owner.

Ray,
David doesn't actually find the stuff himself. A friend of his does. Dave taught him what he knows about bikes and stuff and suddenly he's comming up with these things. He doesn't have any interest in them for himself, other than the $20 that may soon turn into $5,000. I'm not saying that it's wrong either (he a luckey dude), just that it makes me sad.
