Won't be too long before they'll be another Northern MI Rivendell. I've got one on order and should have it in a month or so. Guess I'll have to get over to Frankfort and try the ride. I did see a Saluki about a month ago in Petoskey on the Wheelway. I was in a hurry and couldn't stop to talk, so, don't know if he was local or tourist.
