We just got home from our visit to the show. And our visit to the IKEA store.

I've never seen more Schwinn Varsity bikes in one place in my life. Had to have been over 100 of them in various states of condition. Most of them ratty but at least one NOS.

Notable bikes I remember seeing:

Tri-color 600 equipped 55 cm Colnago
80's 57cm Trek.
A 1970 Raleigh Super Course 531
A Paramount tandem with extra pedals for a child stoker,
Pogliaghi frame and fork,
DEATH FORK equipped Viscount.

After the show my wife and I met up with Road Fan for lunch. We had a nice chat about bikes over some slices of pizza. It was great to meet another BF member. Good choice of location as the pizza was terrific.

Then we went to IKEA and spent 4.5 hours wandering around that huge store. But we are now the owners of a new TV stand. I just have to put it together now.

I took some pics and will post some of those later.
