thinking about it, i'd actually say i stopped riding properly, ROM etc at the end of 84/start 85....., sold my Redline, mid 86 !

so,.........back to FLANELCAMEL,....strange name (I know pot/kettle  :D), what does it mean ???

wtf is that top one, look at the rear drop outs

If I remember correctly the top one is a prototype ridden by Woody Itson? It has Campy drop-outs - the same ones came on the early FreeAgent Freestylers  :daumenhoch:
