So, I was going to write a bit about this trip for the front page but seeing as it's taking me forever, I will put up a few images i have just found from a trip to Colnago back in the Spring.

Long story, short amount of pics - i was sick as a dog that day to the point that I shot hardly any images and ended up having Ernesto put me up in his office while he called his own personal doc to come and rescue me…

They won't forget me in a hurry in Milan that's for sure…. :oops:

Anyway, a little bit of Campag history at Colnago…

Those are great! Have you got any more of the baby blue and chrome bike with the cobalt brakes and front carbon disc wheel?
 
Re:

Nice 8)

I like the one of Rominger's hour record bike. Very understated for Colnago.
Thought that was Indurain in the Worlds/Mapei strip. Then I enlarged the photo and realized it was Olano :roll:
Any more Augustus ?

This painting hangs in the stairwell to Ernesto's office on the second floor. Much of his furniture has a bicycle theme and were built with bicycle parts.
 
Re:

I'll have a look and see if there are more. I was so sick, my friend from Campy ended up taking a load with one of my cameras (hence the campag bias :-) )

Got a couple of C60 production before i collapsed. Not very retro though. :-)
