Wow, that's a pretty cool legacy to impart here, thank you! And very sorry for your loss. I have a couple of senior citizens in my bike club whom I love dearly - one of which who (love talking to this man with the bright twinkling eyes) until a few years ago (he is now 80) used to give our club commuting workshops - why?

Cause he stated that he rode his bike to school since age of 5 - and then always commuted - till he had a stroke, on the bike, at the age of 76. He rode year round - even in the nasty weather of NYS - Lake Ontario bad snow storms - and I saw what he manufactured and wore. One awesome man.

And I'm sure, should they have met - would have had some very, very great stories.

Thank you for sharing!
