I was actually a little surprised that Grant published the article in
the Rivendell Reader. There are a number of Rivendell owners in
Tucson. Several of us even got together on one occasion to display
our Rivendells and distribute Rivendell catalogs during a GABA
(Greater Arizona Bicycling Association) swap meet a number of years
ago (Greg Yares, who coordinates the swap meet, pulled us together)
I guess Maynard is a FOG ("Friend of Grant") with certain
prerogatives...
