Not looking down on them at all. I rode trails today for which a FS bike would have been more appropriate. If you live in this area and just have one bike, a FS bike is a reasonable option for some. I still think that "extreme" equipment makes mundane experiences seem more exciting sometimes, but there's nothing wrong with that.
Today I saw a dude with a purple Riv custom on top of Mt Tam. The Riv had leather tape, acorn bags, and Paul center pulls. I tried to engage the guy in conversation, but he hurriedly left without saying much. His buddy was on a steel bianchi with berthoud bags. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
