Hello List,
As a person not very well informed about the early history of bicycles or motorcycles, I was fascinated by the "art of the motorcycle" Guggenheim exhibit in Las Vegas. Anyone going to INTERBIKE this year owes themselves a visit. Bob points out that many of these 'new' technologies are not new at all, and everything old is new again!
