I'll be bringing my Jack Taylor curved seat path racer with ASC rear end and most likely a thetic oval chainring to join in the fixed contingent. Its the frame I bought from Ray Etherton at last year's Cirque, and maybe one or two others. We'll see how well I can clean them up before the Cirque. Hope we have nice weather, got caught in the rain last year and got chain goo all over the Colnago just before the show. I'll try to keep up, but I'm just a tourist!
