Angel sends at least five emails to me a week it seems. He usually includes a picture of the bike and where known, the city in Italy where the bikes he sends were made. It is truly amazing that he can find so many new steel makes to add to the guide. It just goes to show you that there are hundreds of builders who never get their products out of their country. Norris has mentioned many made in France of that ilk. The British bike industry was just as prolific, with many makes most of us have never heard of, let alone seen. I'm sure the same can be said for many other countries. A public thanks to all of you who send me information on builders for the guide. Thanks. Lou Deeter, Orlando FL
