When I lived in Alameda up to about 2006, I started bringing interesting, old Italian bicycles to this event. There are usually quite a few motorcycles as well... It IS a really great event and my friend Steve will likely be there with one of the very few UNRESTORED Lancia spiders in the world. I think it's 1955 or so, he got it from the original owner who worked at LRL, (that's Lawrence Radiation Lab for you non-locals). It still has the parking sticker on the bumper. IIRC, the original owner traded in a Jag for it when the car was new. Stevan Thomas 73 Berlina
