There seems to be a sizable contingent of Vanguards in central Ohio. My wife and
I in
Gahanna, have a pair of '96 Vanguards, Phil P., in Baltimore had two but sold
one to a friend.
There was a rather unusual one (huge flashing yellow lights on the seat rails)
in the Ride of
Silence in Columbus this spring.
