Hello List,

I'm starting to receive the first Motobecane catalog scans and bicycle pics, thank yaw'll for that.

To be clear, these pictures are not just for my personal edification. I will be forwarding material to Dale and, if he finds any of it useful, he will post it on the CR website.

Thanks again
