Look at that paint job. Style never goes out of fashion.
Hi,
My name is Giovanni and I sold that Colnago TT.
Thanks for hosting the auction photos here for future reference. That nice bike went to South Korea.
I check your blog regularly, very nice work indeed.
Take a look at my blog here: www.onebuttmanysaddles.com if you like.
Cheers,
Gio
Hi Giovanni,
That was a great bike and the buyer is one lucky guy! Your blog and flickr account betrays passion, a good eye, and plenty of cleverness behind the lens. I'll be checking in... lots...
Cheers!
