1996 Serotta Atlanta - "Presidential" Bike

As many of you know, this is the Atlanta that I purchased from Lou Deeter.  Lou used this bike only on Federal Holidays but I decided to use it to honor our Presidents...you can consider it honoring the Office if you don't happen to like the man I'm riding for on any particular birthday!  On each Presidential birthday I ride the bike and post a little history lesson about the man being remembered, can't get the "teacher" out of me, I guess.  At any rate, while in Fredericksburg, Texas this past week I thought about going over to the LBJ Ranch and doing a few shots.  The weather just never cooperated but on the day I was riding through the little Texas town of Comfort I had an even better idea...why not "Honor the Union" with the first shots of the bike by taking a few pictures of a little known American monument!  The "True to the Union" memorial is located not far off of I-10 but is probably one of the least known monuments around....please read the Texas Historical marker information I've posted below, it's a very touching story that has been lost in time......too bad, such dedication to country and cause is very rare today. I will continue with the remaining photographs of the Atlanta in the near future.
