Quick post today as work continues on the second video from last weeks visit to San Diego and tomorrow is the Seattle Bike Expo (the largest of its kind!)
Had a chance to take some pix of Jeff's collection of classic bikes for the new website grafix. It is an amazing menagerie of cycle art, dazzling in its history, the design and craftsmanship of the bikes and the scope of the collection. I was thinking how much fun it would be to shoot a "Night in the Museum" take-off video. The legends appear to tell their tales of the long past golden years of cycling. Willy Grimm, Ed Williams, Ray Keller, Harvey Black, Charlie Logan, Bill Jacoby mixing it up with Lance, George, Levi and Alberto. All of them and just me with my camera. And a grip or two.
If you are coming to Seattle for the Bike Expo RCVman highly recommends a ferry trip (you can walk on or ride) to Bainbridge Island (leaves from the Coleman Dock, Pier 52) and check out Classic Cycles awesome bike museum.
You can get a new bike there too.
This lug looking like it might have belonged to Lancelot, (can barely make out CAMINAOF engraved on the stay) is one of the many at Classic Cycles.
