Regards to all, If today you have not already received an email from me similar to this one, then you are NOT on my list of those who expressed interest in obtaining a copy of the Catch The Wind DVD. Initially, there was a wait for availability, and then another wait for me to get it together ... very sorry for the long delay. Anyway, I'll be able to buy copies this weekend at our Americane' Vintage Bike event centered around our Bloomer Park Velodrome in Rochester Hills, so if you would still like one or more copies, please let me know by Saturday night.

The cost of the DVD is $10, and shipping will be $3.50 to cover First Class postage and packing materials, and Paypal fees. Thus, $13.50 should be sent to my Paypal recipient address: _fujifish1@aol.com_ (mailto:fujifish1@aol.com) , (be sure to include a shipping address with the payment, please) and I would be grateful for speedy payments, as spare pocket loot is mighty sparse around here lately!!!.

Thanks!

Ciao, Mark Agree Southfield MI USA ~ ~ ~
