OK, who collects early racing bikes?

Thanks. I'm a bit of a CABE "rookie" so will figure out how to find Post #246. Mine is a blue/green with navy lugs. I don't believe it has been posted to CABE...at least not that I've been able to find. I'll have more to share when I return from some travel later in the week.

Post 246 is just a few before this post. Top right corner of the post tells you the number.

I wanted to buy this one but guess you may have gotten it. I have many photos of this one. Nice bike with good original surviving decal.

STAYER..

Finally coming together after trying to complete it for the last 20 years ..!!! The great "Thaddaus Robl" German Motor-Pacing Champion.

My tribute bike -> "ROBL" raced a Brennabor, Corona, Afficke, an Express and others. None survive that we know of after 20 years researching.

Next is to build a more accurate version of the Brennabor.

The Goossens pictured in Post #252 is coming together. Saddle and seatpost are "place holders" for now. Still needs a chain.
