Is that Bill in the old Elgin Mission bay store?
I just about posted the same question. I was looking at the frame, then it hit me that it looked like Bill in the background…
Yes, that is infact “Wild Bill”…he may just up and ride again…it is an honor to spend a few hours a day with the man. He and Val are just wonderful people.
Bill’s a great guy. I used to live in Chicago and would sometimes walk to Mission Bay at lunchtime to look at bikes. If you caught Bill in the right mood, he was quite a talker. Funny guy.
Only Bill and a few others can share stories such as eating PB&J in his basement with Gerard and Phil, Emilio, Dan, Kenny, Paul, Lon as well as many other icons of the sport. He knows all of the players - and as much respect as he has for them, they do for him. Well, all but for some guy named Monty ;-)…I guess Val and Monty once drove to interbike together…
I’m pretty sure it was bought up on the first day of posting. Money was on the way before my PM got through. Someone out there is gonna be wetting themselves silly when they get this frame.
