Hi Gang,
A couple of items have crossed my mind while whittling away a rainy Sunday morning in the workshop.
First, after seeing so much interaction regarding Masi and Peugeot PX-10 dating via our list and the excellent PX-10 website, does anyone know how to date Cinellis?
I have a Super Corsa that was sold to me as being from 1970, and the serial number on the BB states 2195. There is the makings of another number, perpendicular to the one noted above, the starts with a 5. I am presuming that the second digit, obscured by paint, would be a 9 and be referring to the frame size.
Second item is relative to data sheets that list members may have created to record the specifications and details of their bikes. I am thinking of creating an Excel spreadsheet that would record the serial number and all pertinent data relative to each bike that I own. I'm sure that many others on this list have already created just such a document. I'd be interested in seeing others attempts at this. Further, we may consider the creation of a common format that might be shared with the list. It would be a handy tool for those who have not created their own, and by being of a common format, may provide for easy and interesting comparison between members machines.
Just some thoughts on an idle morning.
Cheers,
Larry Strung
