The main guy in charge of the site has been busy with travel, business, and other more pressing needs in his real life. The info you asked about, especially the catalogs, took up a great deal of space and was stored on a site separate from the free area where what remains of R-R is still available. The catalog area either went belly up financially or has it's own set of problems. Ray has not had time to resolve the storage problem, and probably won't anytime soon

Meanwhile, a couple Raleigh catalogs have been put on Mark Bulgier's vintage catalog site, (although the 75 is probably a 76. Never got that sorted out at R-R either). Hopefully in the next few months, or whenever else time permits, I will make my catalogs available to MB as well, many of which were on R-R, and several that didn't get there before the crash. I have most on cd, but no functional cd burner at work again until last week. Pandemonium prevails in my little world too, well into the forseeable future. Sorry, we have real lives too. AND it's summer. (Catalpas and mimosas are in bloom, it MUST be summer!) Free time is spent riding. We'll get around to it.
