Beautiful. Now if I can just finish mine... ________________________________ From: rbw-owners-bunch@googlegroups.com [mailto:rbw-owners-bunch@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of John L Sent: Saturday, March 31, 2012 8:22 AM To: rbw-owners-bunch@googlegroups.com Subject: [RBW] My new Simpleone!
I had no intention of buying a new bike. Let me say that for starters. But as part of my trip to the Bay Area last month I made it over to Walnut Creek and found a nice looking Simpleone in the showroom. So, took a 62cm model out for a spin, loved the fit, loved how light and springy it felt compared to my racked, bagged, geared, and fendered Hillborne (not to say I don't also love that). But since I had no intention of buying a new bike, I walked out with a Mark's Wrap and a stack of Rivendell readers. And, only hatching in my mind, a plan to save pennies, sell lemonade, etc until I could get my hands on one. And then, panic, I get home and the Simpleone goes away from the web page. So, sense and frugality having taken their leave, lust and terror dictating the action, I fret, email, fret more, and manage to come away with that same 62cm model I demo'ed a few weeks before. Here are some quick iphone pictures, just after the shakedown ride. I do not regret a thing. link to the flickr pics<http://flic.kr/s/aHsjzk4RJa> -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
