My motorcycle forum has a pay it forward (karma) thread. A few weeks ago I put up a pair of boots that were a few years old but still in good shape. They went to a good home and a happy rider. Fast forward to Yesterday - I posted in the road report section of a radar trap on one of the twisty roads by my house after passing by the copper on my Bottecchia (I was below the posted limit). One of my friends posted that it was a lucky day not getting a ticket, so I posted a pic of my bike as a joke, saying no yellow card for me today. Another guy quoted the post and replied, "wow, time warp". I posted that I'm into restoring and riding retro bikes, and he PM'd me out of the blue. Seems he used to be a tech, rides a vintage Rossin SLX, and has an early 90s Pinarello Cronos TT he never got along with. He offered to give it to me provided I'd give it a good home. No pics, but I know it's Columbus SL and needs a new front (650c) wheel. We work fairly close to each other (5 miles) and are meeting after work. Should be an interesting day. I guess it does come around, after all.
I'll post pics once I get it in the stand in the workshop.

Good luck!
