Not a lot of C&V bike interest in NW Florida, when that Alan stayed on the floor so long, that like to have driven me up the wall wanting to buy it. Tight money at the time, the Medici took up what extra I could save.

The few of us that ride and/or build vintage around here are lone riders and no one seems interested in group events or gatherings.

The construction didn’t even phase me, pinning the lugged joints is an option, if needed.
