    The problem now with the Classic Rendezvous is that if you post
    anything on that site you end up with scam artists emailing you for ten
    months or more afterwards.

    I had an old Grand Sport group that I thought someone might want and
    posted it there. I never got one legitamate email about it but perhaps
    several hundred scam artists.

    So be VERY careful on that group and don't buy anything that doesn't
    sound right.

    Here's a link to the site associated with the email list, for anyone
    interested. If you get in touch with Dale, the list owner, don't blame
    whatever happens on me, please. I've already said what I think of him as
    a list administrator (he's probably a nice guy otherwise but I wouldn't
    know).

    http://www.classicrendezvous.com/

    and the ads page,

    http://www.classicrendezvous.com/forsale.htm

    I don't believe that the forsale column remains on Classic Rendezvous and I
    suspect everyone else was having the same problem I had.

    A funny thing about that site is that they don't have Gary Fisher listed!
    That's sort of like having a website about the early aviators and leaving
    out Glenn H. Curtiss.

    "The purpose of this not-for-profit site is to encourage those interested in
    enjoying and preserving vintage lightweight "racing" style bicycles of the
    period from the early 20th century until 1983."

    What part of that description describes Gary Fisher?

    Gary Fisher isn't a framebuilder of "lightweights" (i.e. lugged road bikes),
    he is/was a mountain bike frame designer/marketer.

    I don't know if this is a good place to ask, but I am looking for an older

    will continue, but is there anyone other places to look? Links or another

    You might have to dig a little. Some velodrome sites have "for sale"
    listings.

    Above is the For Sale page on Ken Hart's Welcome to the Velodromes.

    Here's a link to the site associated with the email list, for anyone
    interested. If you get in touch with Dale, the list owner, don't blame
    whatever happens on me, please. I've already said what I think of him
    as
    a list administrator (he's probably a nice guy otherwise but I wouldn't
    know).

    http://www.classicrendezvous.com/

    and the ads page,

    http://www.classicrendezvous.com/forsale.htm

    I don't believe that the forsale column remains on Classic Rendezvous and
    I
    suspect everyone else was having the same problem I had.

    A funny thing about that site is that they don't have Gary Fisher listed!
    That's sort of like having a website about the early aviators and leaving
    out Glenn H. Curtiss.

    From http://www.classicrendezvous.com/

    "The purpose of this not-for-profit site is to encourage those interested
    in
    enjoying and preserving vintage lightweight "racing" style bicycles of the
    period from the early 20th century until 1983."

    What part of that description describes Gary Fisher?

    Gary Fisher isn't a framebuilder of "lightweights" (i.e. lugged road
    bikes),
    he is/was a mountain bike frame designer/marketer.

    If you look on that site you'll find an article and pictures of Chris
    Chance, Joe Breeze, Columbine Cycles, Bruce Gordon, Tom Kellogg, Paul Sadoff
    and others who weren't out of school in '83.

    Now I believe that the early MTB guys all should be honored for their
    contributions. Especially if you're including SOME of them. And a couple of
    the really great contributors was Gary Fisher and Cunningham - the two that
    probably did more to force the MTB revolution than anyone else.

    Isn't it about time you stop acting like a [censored]? The guy I met in
    Sausalito was a pretty bright guy with a good attitude. I haven't seen a lot
    of that from you since you've moved to Salt Lake City.
