My first "good" bike was a Fuji S-10-S which I owned for about twenty years before I gave it away to someone who needed a bike. I painted it twice and rebuilt it many times. What was Sheldon's historical significance of that bike? Just reading up on Sheldon again.

Just like him, I also love bicycling because of the sense of freedom it gives me. And there are other good reasons, too, such as being easy on the environment...

I also had my camera handy to catch a photo of Sheldon taking a photo of my vintage RIGI bicycle. We stopped and chatted for a moment and he explained that he took the photo for his collection having never seen a RIGI in the flesh so to speak. Attached is that photo and my small tribute to the legend in the hobby. RIP Sheldon Ray <blockquote>Ray, thanks.
