Gotcha nlerner. Maybe this is a good place to show off my Merckx. It is without doubt the best bike ever produced and I don’t know why any bike would be made of anything other than Reynolds 653.

I like that it has a downtube beacon so that you can find it in the dark.

There seems to be some direct sunlight in that pic.

That's funny, I've never been to California, and yet I think I have a photo of that ride.

Absolutely.

I remember seeing his posts- you'd always see how measured he was, and always such beautiful photography.

It was literally YEARS until I figured out who he was. And for me, being a Suntour homer- I was gobsmacked. As I was when I heard he passed.
