Love to see a well-used Riv, even if it's minimally cared for. That's kind of the beauty of these "simple" bikes - they really do fine with minimal maintenance.
I would say my Hillborne looks a lot more beat up on close inspection, similar types of scratches and dings but I'd say 3-4x as many. It has stories to tell, as well! Coming up on seven years and 14,000 km together.
