Very nice.
Now you only have to make the huge effort to make it to Carlsbad California for the Masi 90th anniversary events at the end of July.
Breaking Away film on Friday
Masi Show of some sort on Sat.
Ride on Sunday morning in association with Campagnolo USA.
I will try and make the ride. I have to do a big tear down and clean up to feel the bike I will ride will be in acceptable condition, I have been going through the stable, when a bike gets its drivetrain dirty enough, I just go to another that is clean… Time is a precious commodity. I went through all the Masis and French bikes, been progressing through the Colnagos. Things are piling up!
By the way, the 3ttt saddles have a reputation as not being very comfortable.

Wish I could do Carlsbad. It would mean I could see my son in SD also.
Hoo-boy, glad I dug down to page three (I've been incommunicado for over a week here)! The big pics really do the details justice. My favorite bit is the work on those brake levers. While I've seen the rhombus engravings and those triangular cutouts ahead of the cable anchoring barrels, I've never seen those line-dot-line engravings. Bella!

If there ever was a bike considered grail or museum worthy (to me), you own it.
Really gorgeous.
