I remember a mid/late '80's issue of bicycle guide had a photo of a guy with a very well executed Nuovo Record rear derailleur on his arm. Anybody else remember that?

Honestly, this goes a bit too far. I might wear a campy cap night and day, but ink? I'll pass. Once again, I'll refer to The Oatmeal to express my sentiments

- perfect. I'll express my love of Campagnolo by riding with it.

My wife has a tram stamp, but I try not to hold it against her. No one's perfect!
