Just wanted to post a brief note regarding his store...
My wife and I watched the Tour of California in Solvang, and then the start of the next stage in Santa Barbara. On the way out of town, we stopped into Baron's store...and was that ever worth it!
More wheels than I have seen in any shop, old frames everywhere...and some really nice bikes on display (Specially the Gitane track bike, but that is a personal bias (or problem!)). Anyhow, I highly recommend stopping in if you are in Santa Barbara...it is well worth it!
Baron was very friendly and took the time to talk old bike stuff with my wife and me. The store is full of wool jerseys, NOS frames, and other eye candy, including some great posters and vintage parts. According to Baron, he still has more, although I am not sure where he is going to fit it all!
Anyways, just wanted to post a public "thank you" to Baron and his wife, and encourage all of you to visit his shop if you are in the LA/Santa Barbara area. Well worth it!
