Eric Beautiful set up, that frame looks brand new. The Bleriot has special place in my heart as it is the bike I found some place on the web years ago that eventually led me to the Riv site and started my conversion from a guy who thought he just had to have a Carbon bike so he could go "fast" to one who appreciates the beauty and utility of a lugged steel bike, and riding to put a smile on my face rather than trying setting a new course record. Gotta find me a nice 57 cm Bleriot one of these days. Enjoy your new ride man.
