Hahaha!
I meant the way he died in the book, not in real life. At the end of the third and last book in the series, "Le Vicomte de Bragelonne", in the siege of Maastrich, a bullet from the castle strikes the wooden case carrying his Marshall of France baton and kills him.
His last words are: "Athos and Porthos, I will see you soon. Aramis, goodbye forever."

I have read all the books several times, and reread passages of them often. I don't really like Dumas' other books much, though.

Dude, spoilers!

This was taken during cooler weather from last year but I was wearing it around some today. I would say that this '50s era RD Stetson Homburg conversion was an easy one but it was a little more involved than just a simple reflanging. All in all it's a really nice hat and you can't beat the color. Other than reflanging the brim the hat is all original and intact, except for the keyhole size tag.

Nice Michael! I like these old tourers. I need to convert mine into a gravel bike. Nice cap/mask combo as well.
Cool. What sort of old tourer do you have? Since I was more or less born and raised on gravel riding I like the idea. Don't know if I have the strength for it anymore.

Nice Michael. That’s a cool mask, love the Cannondale. Mine is a ‘97 M-300 that I bought in’97. Stay cool.
Thanks Alan. The mask is one I made the other day. I finally got around to looking up the date code on the bike and it was made in 1993. I found the old catalog for that year too. Seems it was a custom order job as most of the components match the T1000 spec rather than the T700. Sadly it was missing the original Brooks saddle. I did a little more cleaning on it this morning and listing out the components to compare with the catalog. And was wearing this old Ranchcraft while I was doing that.

Then I switched back to my mesh Stetson flat cap and got out for another 30 mile ride.
