Thanks Bill'ier'. But I must warn everyone. Titanium requires an argon atmosphere when forging frame repairs in the local blacksmith shop. As far as I know, no guide book lists which blacksmith shops carry argon should you need a little repair 'en tour'.

There was a time before our time,
It will not come again,
When the best bikes still were steel bikes
But the men were iron men.
From John O'Groats to old Milano
The craftsman's torches plied
To build the cycles of the road
That were the queen sport's pride.
The "Flying Scot," the "Marinoni,"
The "'Professionals' of Raleigh's"--
There was wind music in the blood
That thought of names like these.
"Colnago," "Bob Jackson," "Cinelli,"
And "Masi, Peugeot, De Rosa, James,"
The whole world gaped to look at them
Before the mold-bike came.
Their exploits were of cobbles and dirt,
Their forks a cutting blade;
And, on the rivet, the champions flew,
Lords of the roadie trade.
The riders with the little caps
And the Ardennes drawl,
Who knew Roubaix and Alpe d'Huez
And the Elysee over all.
Stately as churches, swift as gulls,
They trod the highways, then
No man had seen such bikes before
And none will see again.

Yeah, but there are words in that I definitely can't find a rhyme for...
