Hi All- I did a personal "Tribute to Norman" ride on a stunningly beautiful day in northern Indiana yesterday. I Properly shod my '74 Tour of Britain with sew-ups and off I went. A wonderful day in the saddle! He might be pleased, and perhaps a little vindicated, that when I choose the Taylor for a club ride I can still hold my own with the boys on their carbon steeds with my 50 tooth big ring and half-step gearing. I would hope too, he would be happy that one of the brother's creations is still being ridden hard and bringing joy to it's rider. Thanks Norman!
