New old guy

Hello from a former racer and bike shop (Marina Del Rey Bike in CA) pro bike specialist in the 70’s and 80’s
Campagnolo Technical Support:
1983 Pre-Olympic track event
1984 Los Angeles Olympics
Western US technical representative 1985-87 providing technical support for National and World Championships, Coors Classic and other stage and one day races and touring events
Personal bikes are a 1984ish Dave Tesch Model 100, custom built to measure, which was Dave’s first and possibly only frame built with Reynolds 753. The other is the first custom Panasonic in the US built for me by Takao Ono as a thank you for interpreting for the Japanese team during the 1972 Grand Prix of the United States.
Glad to share what I can still remember. Cranial hard drive crashes may be a problem.
