Lou and The List, "The Dream Makers" ---- Bicycling July 1985; pgs. 22 to 31. My notes indicate (according to J.P.W.) Playboy of April 1986. The frame was originally built and painted for the International Cycle Show (N.Y. or L.A. or both? ) and was outfitted w/ the Campagnolo "prototype" C-Record grouppo(thats another story already discussed and in the archives) that Campy "lent" to certain frame builders. Paint by Betsy. Photos were taken for a calender that was never produced. These are the photos used for the magazine articles. Neat stuff. John T.Pergolizzi cold N.Y.C.

Lou Deeter asked in referance to the Weigle and Playboy bike:


> Does anyone know the month and year of the Playboy magazine that had the article and pictures of Peter Weigle's bicycle? I think it may have been 1985. Also, the same bike was in Bicycling magazine, "The Dream Makers" about the same time. John Pergolizzi showed the actual bike at Cirque in 2002. Lou Deeter, Orlando FL
