How long has it been since someone was crazy enough to try a cross country on a Superbe? You know you'd pay good money to watch the insanity.

Someone out there can help me find this Superbe, please. Name your price but remember you'll need to sleep at night.

Thanks!

I was working in Greenville back in August/Sept and saw your rig, with Airwick (I assume) sitting outside the BiLo. I was in a bit of a hurry or I would have waited for you to come out. Some pictures of the Superbe can be seen at my Webshots it is in the Bicycle Album... I will keep my eye out for a Superbe for you. IIRC from pictures of your bike you will probably need the 21" frame. Those are slightly more common than the taller ones. I have considered a long tour on my Superbe but it is at least 2-3 years away...life keeps getting in the way BTW I get into the GSP area at least once a year. Next time I am scheduled down that way I will let you know.
