I think that might be a Performance frame, not Palo Alto. Performance used the Blue Ridge name for the touring frames. Biemezzeta built for both of them and the details are almost identical. In fact, I have the race version of that frame, bought with no history and a repaint, and I can't tell which shop it was sold through.

I'm petty sure that I'm the one who suggested it was Palo Alto based on the Columbus engraving in the fork crown and stay caps...but I agree with the above, it could be Performance.
