Bob, P.C.Kohler is on the OldRoads.com forums at http://oldroads.com/d_ltw_def.asp?rec_count=1

There is a Vintage Lightweight and a English Roadster discussion area there. A couple of weeks ago on the English Roadster forum Peter posted about Yahoo cutting RollBritannia. Sad, as there was lots of great Raleigh info there.

I guess you remember Peter being a rabid British bike supporter on the CR list ("I'll take on all comers on my Sturmey-Archer equipped '48 Raleigh")? He posted on OldRoads Vintage Lightweight forum about buying a Italian CINELLI and a French PEUGEOT and how much he is enjoying riding them. I guess that's why he no longer posts on the CR list?
