And, interestingly enough, a fellow from Toronto, a man in his seventies with arthritis, invited me to purchase his collection of bicycles, including a 1954 Claude Butler, a 1979 Marinoni and a 1988 Marinoni.

He also sent me pictures of some of his spare odds and ends that he wishes to sell off also. How about a set of alloy handlebar mounted water bottles with cork stoppers?

Sadly, my pockets are empty and my plan is still to eliminate my inventory of flippers, and reduce my personal collection to three bikes. Pretty sure that my Marinoni Quebec will remain a keeper, but I do offer it for sale now and again...

Randy, your website's section on Marinonis put them on the map for me. Did you have one up on ebay a while back, too? I was lusting after that for a bit, but it was way too small for me, if I recall.
