Customer's Bike- 1968 Schwinn Krate

 Very cool original 1968 Schwinn Orange Krate. yes, I said- original. The bike is original paint, decals and parts. Pogo seatpost. The Krate Kollectors might point out the bike is a 1968 and should have a front fender, very good observation. I wondered as well, but alas, the bike is complete with original owners manual and stapled inside is the book is the receipt from the summer of 1968, showing the purchase of the front fender. Really. 
Amazing time machine bike. I doubt you would see a nicer original bike.

French Cyclist map

Well it is actually Automobiles and Cyclists, but still cool. I bought this in 2007, when I was in Paris for PBP. It is for the Lyon, Savoie, and Dauphine region of France. There is no date, but from my limited french knowledge, I would speculate it if from the 1950s.

Lucifer Baby! light for sale

 New in original box, Lucifer front light/generator combo set. What a great looking box and equally great looking light. Mounts to the fork and is a self contained unit, no need to fumble with wires. Made in Switzerland. Lucifer lights were commonly outfitted on British bikes, including a couple Jack Taylors we have and I have seen it on a Hurlow as well.
Oh yeah, great name too.

2011 PBP Brevet card

So the way Paris Brest Paris works, it is similar to an alley cat race, where you check in at different checkpoints(controls) where your brevet card is stamped and the time is recorded. Along with the scheduled controls, there are secret ones as well. So 1200+km of that, in the French countryside. I like that it is only organized every 4 years, it makes it special.
