I've been thinking about Brett Horton's collecting, and admiring his nice brochure he handed out at Cirque. What a great way to preserve cycling's history. I'm glad someone is doing it and Brett has the passion for it for sure. What I want to know is where are the next opportunities. Ted Miller at Cirque said he was going to start collecting team socks. I've been watching the Giro and I think I want to collect the dresses from the podium girls. I wonder how Brett would recommend I do that--should I insist that they remove the dress immediately after the presentation ceremony? Would it be crude for me to ask to watch? Brett, does anyone already collect these? If you do, please tell me the stories, please. Lou Deeter, "way too much time on my hands", Orlando FL
