In the car collector field there is a subset of people known by me as the concourse people. These people will lay down terrycloth toweles as they carefully and slowly wheel their concourse level cars off the trailers and over the grass to their assigned spot in the event so as not to get so much as a single particle of a blade of grass stuck to the tire treads. I can't do that and tend to just let the grass fly all over the place if I'm unloading a car. Been a long time since I've played with cars, and I've never gone to a concourse level event.
That's a nice looking bike, I have no idea if it is concourse quality, but I suspect the current owner of it believes it is. And that belief is worth half the price if not more. If the seller believes then so might a buyer. They hate me at auctions.
