Hi Neil -

It's about 350 km from here. I've heard of BlueVelo before - I believe he also used to sell the Go One velo - another gorgeous machine (the nicest looking, IMO). And about $12k new!

The interesting thing is he offers rentals as well. I get to Toronto a couple of times a year to visit friends, and they're even in the same part of the city as Bluevelo. I had forgotten about the rental option, but I really would like to try one.
