Would be interested in bidding on one of the Lodolas, is the red and white a 175 or 235 Curtis ?

Thanks, Bill

Being here at the Auction is at this point the only way. Or having a proxy bidder via a phone call .

Curtis,
Will you have anybody willing to act as a proxy bidder? Is there someone you know that will for a small fee act as a proxy bidder?

I know a guy that lives 160 miles from the Harper mansion

That sounds promising. Hopefully his fees wouldn't be too high.

I've never seen the whole collection but I suspect there will still be a sizable stash of the best bikes in Mike's collection when these are gone.

Does this mean he will be hanging out on the forum providing sage advice? Or going to more rallies?

JJ · « **Reply #41 on:** August 25, 2016, 12:12:24 PM »

That's quite a list! Something for everyone!!

Curtis Harper · « **Reply #42 on:** August 26, 2016, 12:56:43 PM »

Pretty much his entire personal collection will be sold. We did throw in a few loops and a couple of tonti bikes.

Curtis Harper · « **Reply #43 on:** August 29, 2016, 04:43:59 PM »

Just a cool pic I took

Travlr · « **Reply #44 on:** August 29, 2016, 07:59:43 PM »

No internet bidding, no telephone bidding. Must be present to bid.

That leaves me out. It should hold down prices for those who go.

Less than 600 miles on that one. It is a sweet little bike.

Have you tried firing them all up orchestra style?

Are there any G5s?
