Hi tolfan,
Cycle on down and snap some pictures. Ask if he has a Presstube too and I'll owe almsot everyone in this thread a steak dinner.

I think I'm leaning toward keeping everything on the bike (mirror, cyclometer, rack, light) as authentic as possible but not go overboard. Keep our gear traditional and go back to towing a bob trailer. I don't want to be so over the top I can't get up the mountains leaving San Diego.
