Three will be a fine group. Do you want me to advertise on the Boblist? Probably few Rivendell riders who are not on the RBW list, but we may get a few sympathetic souls; there is even more ideological overlap between the lists than membership overlap, and both groups started with Grant.
Bikes and Coffee: no, I’ve not been there, but I would be delighted to try it out. Let’s wait for a couple of days to see if others respond. IME, many RBW list members don’t read the list every day. I had a nice fixed gear 27 mile rolling hills ride this morning with a friend (on a Black Mountain Monster Cross 2X11) and I am surprised at how good I feel afterward. I would have gone a full 35 miles but I didn’t eat breakfast and didn’t bring a snack, so bailed as my blood sugar bottomed out.
