Book idea is pretty interesting…haven’t had much luck tracking down riders but could still give all that a shot one of these years.

I think the time might be right; it’s been long enough that a lot of us old grumps are starting to get nostalgic, and half those old-school racers are on Twitter now, and the other half Facebook. You’ve got a great stash of primary catalog materials–that’s already like half the work right there. There would probably be some companies that we could get involved–all these guys have marketing and PR departments that are supposed to do this kind of stuff. I’m sure we can twist some arms and at least get photos of vintage team and race gear–maybe we can even score interviews and stuff along the way.
The trick is to make them track us down, and not the other way. 😉
