I was on a charity ride in Missouri once with my Hillborne and had a couple of guys talk to me for about twenty minutes about how awesome Rivs were. They were riding some nicely restored vintage bikes. I told them that in my opinion, Rivs are some of the best bikes on the road. I do believe that too. I can ride my Roadeo as fast as I used to ride a carbon Trek Madone and it is more comfortable and better looking, IMHO.
