Old Melton Rider

Hey Lofter, Thanks for the Melton site response back on pg 2 Melton/Faggan thread. Just got back home from a work trip and been busy catching up (took a old steel TREK road bike to relax after work managed to get about 300 miles of "rollin" hills). I will take digital photo soon of Melton bike and post it. Rode it yesterday for a couple hours before the rain hit.

Hey, Steve!

It's me, Patrick (I hope I got the right Steve!). See you on the Young's Dairy ride this Sunday? Me and my Bianchi (or Colnago) will be waiting!
