Doug, that sounds excellent. I would love to take you up on that very kind offer.
Maybe sometime when Tom Sanders or Peter is coming to visit, we can set that up. I can drive to your place in about 2-1/2 hours probably, right? Would January 2nd be a possibility? I have to drop my son at Kalamazoo College that morning anyways, which is over halfway there....
We can take this discussion off-list if others are starting to get bored with it at this point.

Steve; I've been lucky to visit Doug's shop on more than one occasion, and the last two times, bringing a few freinds over to meet Doug. He has willingly brought out his gorgious Johnny Berry, and a few other frames for us to view, as well as his own handy work. The quality of Doug's work is second to none, and I will admit to finding his paintwork very striking, possibly the best I've seen.
I'm hoping to get over to Dougs fairly soon as he is touching up an Experto Crede for me presently.

If Doug will have you it would be well worth the trip to see his shop.
I built my share of frames in the early 80s and I can tell you that without a doubt Doug builds some of the most beautiful frames you have
ever seen. (Doug, I remember you from RAGBRAI. Sorry for the shameless
plug)
