Five years ago I saw an ad on the local CL for a Chris Kvale touring frameset.

It was incorrectly priced and way too low.

I bought it and built it, just as I was renewing my interest in classic Italian racing bikes.

It just sat here until our neighbor told me he wanted a commuter bicycle to get to the university where he taught.

Like a doofus I sold him that beauty for a very low amount.

Every time I see him leave for work, it is a bittersweet moment.

I love the fact it is being used and enjoyed, yet I wish it could be me.
