1971 Pogliaghi Italcourse Bicycle

I was told this Pogliaghi was made around 1971. Looking at the serial number registry does not help date it precisely. Originally a yellow/orange color, the previous owner, Mark Petry, had it refinished in Ferrari chiaro rosso by Brian Baylis. The Pogliaghi rides magnificently, with its unusually low center of gravity. One of my regular riding partners forbid me to ride it with her because she said I rode much faster on the Pogliaghi. It is built up with Campagnolo Nuovo Record components with bar-end shifters.
