Happy Birthday to a most gracious, sincere, and genuine gentleman. Your selfless efforts on behalf of the Serotta forumites helps maintain a balance and stability in Serottaville. Thanks for all you do for all of us!


Hope you are having a wonderful and safe cycling adventure in New Hampshire/Vermont with the rest of the Serotta Forum participants.

You are indeed a most special friend to many.

It got as high as 110, and then Pete started to count backwards.

Here's hoping that there's plenty of Red on the bike tour.

Have a great day.

So....does Pete have more bikes than years or more years than bikes? (I know he has more bottles of red than years). :)

Happy B-Day Pete....and many, many more.

. . . across the country, I've finally located the Holy Grail of Serotta Pete memorabilia . . . an actual photograph of Pete on his FIRST bike!

Note the immaculate white paint job on the bike and the stylish haircut which finally does prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that Pete DID indeed have hair at some vague time in the distant past. :p

HAPPY BIRTHDAY PETE! :banana: :banana: :banana:

Pete:

We've dispatched an 8,000 gallon tanker truck filled with our Silver Lake Zillah Vineyard Birthday Reserve Red. Where would you like it to park?

Happy Birthday big guy!

Appreciate all the wonderful notes and wishes. I am up in Vermont/NH with Smiley, Rapid Tour, Zap, and a whole group of very nice folks.

AND YES THEY HAVE RED HERE!!!!!

It is hot and has broken the record since they started recording temp _ BUT STILL COOLER THAN RALEIGH. :)

Smiley is going to try to make you believe that 23 mm tires and carbon frames are not comfortable or dependable - - DO NOT BELIEVE HIM OR THE PICTURES OF the flat I did not have.....

Got myself an HSG for my birthday from me to me....Wonderfui ride and I now have 2 bikes... :)

Smiley is buying the red tonight___ Hope he knows I will be thirsty!!!


Thanks again .....PETE
