Hi Jerry,

I do have a pic of a lovely Fattic frame, in the Hellenic style, that I saw on RAGBRAI last year:

very nice. Was the paint selected to match the honey Brooks, or do you have to sweat just the right amount to get the Brooks to match the paint? Either way, it's amazing.

And while I'm thinking about RAGBRAI, and all the wonderful bikes hidden among the sea of Treks and Giants, here's a few that I managed to get pictures of:

Steve Kurt in Peoria, IL, where it's the first day of spring, and we are expecting 5" of snow tonight. :-P
