Hey Classicpals,
If anyone reads or gazes upon the VeloSnooze (which I always read
in bed to insure a soothing sip from the river Lethe...), you will find
an ad on the back cover of the recent edition featuring Dede Demet but
more importantly you'll see Dede aboard her custom lugged steel
Mariposa. We've been pointed to other pictures of this beautiful
bike, but i like this one:

Goes to show, of course, that it's the motor not the bike when it comes to fast but that fast can be elegant and even classic (with dispensation for the carbon fork...made up by the masked two-tone paint, as I see it...).
Sorry for the cross posting...Also, I bet she is NOT using the Rene Herse cantilevers that just went for $1,259.00 on eBay!! Not that there is anything wrong with using cantilevers on a race bike either...:-) Douglas Brooks looking across that big lake to Toronto, sort of, in Canandaigua, NY
