That was probably me on the Wheelway--rode it a couple of times while I was in 
the area.  Caramel paint, green bag(s)?

Won't be too long before they'll be another Northern MI Rivendell.
I've got one on order and should have it in a month or so.  Guess I'll
have to get over to Frankfort and try the ride.  I did see a Saluki
about a month ago in Petoskey on the Wheelway.  I was in a hurry and
couldn't stop to talk, so, don't know if he was local or tourist.
