Well, he supposedly still is. He told me that him and his wife are still moving to Italy/Canada in September. However, he seems to be having a very difficult time letting go of a lot of things and seemed just a bit emotional. Hard to blame him. When I inquired about the prices of various things he deliberated on most of them and often ended up just saying it wasn’t for sale. I quickly gave up trying and just left with my hat, which I’m very happy with.

Great guy who happens to listen to a lot of the same, often lesser known bands as me and from my generation, and I’m 34, probably close to half his age. He’s also got IWW sympathies and we talked a bit about the workers strikes of Bisbee and Jerome between the early to mid 20th century.

Anybody interested should really try to make the trip while they still can. The States are losing a goldmine of bicycle history.
