What I'm bringing:

'54 Algurn, fancy lugged, Stuart Purves(?) build. Just refinished by Mike Barry's Bicycle Specialities. An all day machine with plenty of the "right stuff". Built with mostly mid 70's Campy and GB CP brakes. I'm workin' on reducing the squealin'.

'57 Claud Butler Allrounder, Bilaminate fancy lugs, have to check to see if oversize TT present. Original finish, perhaps a good candidate for the "To refinish or let be" seminar. Set up as a flip flop one speed with a mix of original and later vintage parts.

'91 Jack Taylor, NOS, newest baby, rides like a dream, one of the last machines from Norm Taylor's torch. Built with late Campy NR (it's what I had lying around).

NOT MAKING THE CUT (unless someone really, really want's to see one)

'79 Nobilette, just resprayed by Assenmacher, mighty fine Pearl White finish, lovely American lugs and built with Suntour Superbe but I'm in a GB mode right now.

'54 Major Nichols, resprayed from last Cirque appearance in '03, but no repeaters from the Adams stable.

Leaving Tomorrow night, so time to start packing up the traveling tool kit, find the roof rack bike bras, and generally start final lauch prep. Cirque time, Baby!

After Cirque I'll put photos up on the Wool Jersey site, but I am a bit drained at the moment. For the first time ever I will have some left over Leather bar wrap...in Honey color...and will bring it to Cirque and have it at my vendor's table... I leave in about 12 hours and will be gone until next Tuesday so peace and good fortune be upon you all and I am so looking forward to seeing many of you in Greensboro. Tom Sanders Lansing, Mi
