Need 1985 Dave Scott Ironman Centurion bike decals
I am the original owner of a gorgeous steel, red and white, 1985 Dave Scott Ironman Centurion and want to repaint it. I have already contacted two reputable companies that repaint bikes for estimates. But before I send the bike frame and fork to be repainted, I need to find a set of the original decals, or a company to reproduce them somewhat inexpensively, as i want to replicate the original design. I have been scouring the Internet for a few days without success. Can anyone help me?

Why Cyclists Have a Bad Reputation!
Do we really need a well-known sports figure nearly wiping out a couple of tourists in Central Park? See NY Times article. And all because he was reading a text on his cell phone while riding!

tech question: shifters
What shifters are compatible with Shimano DuraAce 9-speed? Ultegra, I'd guess. 105s, too. SRAM? Others?
Thanks.
Helmet snug and well placed saved my head!
Kaboom sideways while sweep-marshalling the 100 mile route on Sunday's Twin Lights ride - - fall caused by avoiding a massive SUV backing up blindly from diagonal parking (like in Englewood; but with only 1 narrow lane here each way in Brielle, NJ). We weren't going fast, and luckily were anticipating that risk. Still got impacted, though.
Crossed/bumped my front wheel with the rear of the person ahead of me. Almost righted myself, but then went down on the opposite side of where my wheel crossed his. I fell directly sideways on right side; pretty much from a dead stop. Felt/heard my helmet hit (bounced twice). Slid a bit, some scrapes but not much. No breaks, concussions, or such.
Does anyone know what the cost of violation 1231, Improper Use of Bicycle, is?
The ticket I received which I posted on this Message Board last week remains unresolved. One poster advised fighting it, but this might hinge on what the cost of the infraction is vs the value of my time.
Try as I might, I cannot get an answer to this penalty of the violation. I cannot get a human being on the phone from DMV to answer the question. It does not appear on the ticket or online, at least that I can uncover.
There is something wrong with giving a choice to plead guilty or not but having no idea what the penalty is. Justice might be blind, but she is not minding the store either.
