Get a life. I, like the rest of you, love my Merlin but finally overcame my psychotic relationship between who I am and the bicycle I ride. I get my ass whipped daily by riders on old Schwinns, homemades, and Cannondales while every moment they envy my old 94 Merlin. (Hi Mike, D'Wayne, Rich!)
Hyde Industries might mean the death of Merlin for some. Hangers-on who have no identity but for the thousands-of-dollars Merlin frame that separates them from the rest of humanity will ensure the Hyde acquisition means little.. Please see my earlier messages here regarding Seven Cycles. Deja Vu. How un-insightful I was. Ride, ride, ride.
