Greetings:In the 1980s I worked at The Spoke bike shop in Boulder, Colorado.  I rode on a Mercian Colorado for two seasons until I crashed and destroyed the frame. I dearly loved that bike! I also own a Mercian touring frame that I bought at The Spoke in the 1970s.  I have ridden the touring bike all over the U.S. in my younger years.Thank you for your time and information.P.S. I have a great picture of our team with the team bike that I will try to send you. (It is a couple of years after the photo you have on the website).BillGrand Junction, Colorado
