Thanks Tom, I think that was the cherry red from the Waterford list. I was expecting it to be darker, but I like the way it turned out.
I'm sure the Riv folks would be happy to look up my order for the color if you are interested in getting one too! --Patrick, I use Kojaks in the winter to have a little more flat resistance and Grand Bois Cypres otherwise. I definitely like the GB ride quality better. Toshi On Fri, Apr 13, 2018 at 4:26 PM tc <tdc...@gmail.com> wrote: > Toshi, what a great shade of red!
