Had to give this some thought as I've never listed the entire progression as a curriculum vitae as it were for the whole nine yards. An entire lifetime of cycling summed up into a tossed-off paragraph! Anytime one does this there is always the lookback that maybe one could have done more!
Only one or two comments that might keynote some of what's happened here:
- Every bike was bought new except the '70's-era DeRosa Professional which was bought as a collector bike from Mike Kone which I rode anyway
- Every custom bike is denoted by the builders full name and I am the original client commission for every custom bike listed
- There was about a 7-year hiatus from cycling in that timeline when at a point I got serious about my career and the profession's time demands were "non-negotiable". Wasted time where I coulda bought more bikes!
