--"you are Dario Pegoretti.." (*a must read)

[ron l edmiston]

you have put a torch to more than 10,000 bikes..
you suspect your father was ashamed of your profession..
you keep trying to make the perfect frame..
you drink at least 10 cups of coffee a day..
prospective customers who focus on money annoy you.., punch the delete if the first question.., they don't understand what you do so they certainly don't understand you..
you cherish & respect your relationship with Richard Sachs.., his bicycles linked to Stradivarius violins..
you suspect you will never make the perfect frame, though trying, but you are at peace with that..

Sorry Dario, the Luigino I had was perfect. Now it lives in a bike collection in Singapore and I feel stupid for selling it.
