Thanks for the update!! I am glad to see Rivendell plugging away given the hard times ahead and behind. I do hope Rivendell cane keep its names--too bad about Baggins. It was a great name for a line of bike bags.
I hope the new line of bags has a smaller version too. I really don't care for Yves Gomez as a bike name, even if he is a jolly fellow. I would rather go with dog breeds or other animal names. How about Ca mountains or other CA features. I don't know. Bombadil is a great name and so was Lagolas and Quickbeam. These names captured the personality of these bikes well, I thought.. I am afraid we might see the end of the Japanese bike before long if the dollar does not get into shape and the Brooks saddles are getting seriously expensive. And I need to get one soon. I am glad I got my Atlantis 64 when I could. Its a beauty and I love to ride it. If only our weather would get better back here in Brooklyn or at least let the rains come and wash the salt off the street. I am loath to ride all of that caustic material about. Best wishes to all and my there be prosperity and lots of new bike things. Regards, David . . On Feb 12, 2:50 pm, "Doug Peterson" <dougpn...@cox.net> wrote: > Now you've started it!
