I live very close to Glacier National Park in Montana, and there is a famous biking road called Going to the Sun that I am mainly interested in riding in the summers. I've been doing it on my mountain bike with some difficulty, and would love to be able to do so on a vintage road bike. I'd post a link showing the road, but it says I do not have enough posts yet.
[MENTION=131041]mountaindave[/MENTION] is in the Kalispell area and would probably have a good knowledge of the market

Knowing Montana, (grew up in Chinook) the pickings are going to be slim, you might have to road trip, Missoula with UM may have a bigger selection

did a quick craiigs list search

this is what i saw

The Ciooc is a really cool bike from the C&V point and would be the one I would point you at
Trek X1 crossbike roadie size 56 - $500 (Columbia falls)
