I for one do not want the cover of loss to allow the list to slide into gratuitous attacks on mental health, politics, who is"good" in the world vs. who is "bad." The list functions as a community specifically because it binds us around our love and appreciation of classic bikes. This Cirque was both beautiful and in hindsight for many of us who didn't know, tragic. But I do not wish to have our shared love become an opportunity/ excuse for shared prejudices.
