A non-list member friend of mine is a Zieleman fan and owner and has reproduced decals for one of his bikes. His name is Billy Rounds, he rode for Team Raleigh USA and then Team Fuji. He'll be at Cirque although not attending the dinner and seminars as he plans to hook up with some local friends of his during those events. He'll definitely be on the rides and will be showing a few bikes and will have a swap table next to me. Wish I could give you more specific info but that's about the best I can do for now!

See you all at Cirque!
