[RBW] New Atlantis Build
Hi, I just finished building up my partner's new Atlantis, which we purchased from listserv member Pepe. We took it out for a test ride and had an unfortunate encounter with chain suck. The first scratch of many, I suppose. We picked a mix of components to make the bike flexible enough to tour, keep up (mostly) during shorter road/group rides, and most importantly, to carry my trout-fishing obsessed partner to the harder to reach blue line fishing streams where the native brookies tend to hide.The build list link is included with the pictures, which are found here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/surlybvisits/sets/72157634826315045/ Racks, fenders, and a few other small items to be added when we find the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow, which, if there is any bike can get us there, this is the one! Oh, and a big shout out to Steve Cheers with Mountain Sports Limitedhttp://mountainsportsltd.com/for listening to us go on and on and on about the build! Visit these guys if you can.

[RBW] My first RAGBRAI, my first Rivendell
RAGBRAI is an organized mass ride across Iowa (http://ragbrai.com/). I participated in the last 3 days (out of 7) for my first time. The weather was glorious (70s and sunny) which is uncharacteristic for the last week in July; last year's RAGBRAI was high 90s. I rode 52, 52, and 63 miles, with lots of stops for snacks and streching. The route winds through small towns, and the locals come out in droves to greet the riders (where ya from?) and profit off the event by selling food, beer, and trinkets. It's a very social atmosphere, not a race or serious ride. RAGBRAI has a very broad mix of riders, from grannies on recumbents or town bikes, to the carbon race wannabes, and everything in between. I saw lots of tandems, including a cobbled together tandem recumbent dressed as a banana boat, with banana-suited riders. I saw lots of square people getting wasted and having a good time, and lots of families enjoying the ride calmly. I took it pretty easy and didn't party that much. I rode with my girlfriend and her dad, but I made connections with Team Pez and plan to ride with them next year. Some of my pictures: https://picasaweb.google.com/109817667934112590257/RAGBRAI2013?authkey=Gv1sRgCMydhOL_ur6_6QE# I rode my '97 Rivendell Road that I picked up off craigslist this spring. It's a wonderful bike, and it served me very well. I changed out a lot of parts right before RAGBRAI, and--thankfully--it performed perfectly. Thanks to all the list members who helped me find excellent components at reasonable prices, and thanks to all those who suggested a 650b conversion for this bike. It was a great success! The 650b Lierre tires were awesome (nice hum) and very comfortable. I didn't notice any drop off in my speed with the fatter, slightly smaller tires. The moustache bars were great; I had much less hand pain/numbness than I did with drop bars.

[RBW] Re: Routes from Portland, OR to Seattle, WA
Traffic is pretty light mostly. The stretch from Vernonia out to Astoria is really, really pretty. You can make it even better by taking Young's River Road. We didn't on the fleche, because it would have needed a control, and there's really nothing there but gorgeous scenery.

Yes. It was Bob Bailey riding his Long Low with prosthetics on both legs. I saw him almost every day and he rode well, though he did struggle a little on the hills. Apparently we use our lower leg a lot more than we think we do when we ride up hills. When I told Bob (Hawaii) about the Long Low that he must have just passed in the last mile, he told me that he was so intrigued by the prosthetics that he didn't even notice that they were pedaling a Rivendell. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners Bunch group.

[RBW] On Loss and Love
I am terribly past due, but I still need to write this. Several weeks ago, Erin came into the living room and asked me some mundane question. I didn’t respond; when she looked at me, she saw tears streaming down my face as I stared at my laptop. With urgency and tenderness, she asked what was wrong. Crying quietly, I stammered out as best as I could, “It’s ... one of my Riv Pals…he died.” I couldn’t get out much more in the moment about Seth, but I read all of the posts. Others have been eloquent, and I will simply offer my heart and deep sympathy to Seth’s family and friends on or off this list. Here is what I want to say, though, to all of us here–lurkers and posters alike: My tears let me know that, dang it all, I have come to love our curious little Riv family. How the heck does that happen with a silly old listserv? So thanks for being a part of my life, each and every one of you. Dang it.

Re: [RBW] Re: Custom Paint: Army Green or Tuxedo Black?
I don't know. I do some bike painting on the side and black always reminds me of a job I could do myself. When I pay for a paintjob (or was given one) I would go for something I couldn't readily do myself or find locally. It would be amazing to see a flat army green paint job. I don't know if I have seen a flat Rivendell ever. Also having had a black car and black bikes they show every scratch, every speck of dust and dirt and I am pretty lazy, haha.

[RBW] Re: Custom Paint: Army Green or Tuxedo Black?
Neither Black nor Army green are in my short list of wants. If you already told Grant way back when Army green and Grant already predicted that you would have second-thoughts, then there is always the option of complete surrender and let Grant choose. His choices seem to have that strange ability to grow on you. Anyway, black seems like such a cop-out, but I admit it that black bikes can look unbelievably sharp, sometimes. There was a pdf flyer that Riv published of a black Roadeo that was a stunner. Tuxedo Yves also is a really classy laddie. I had an 80's Miyata (that I just shipped to its new owner) that is black with a Silver headtube and I think that is a very smart look, too. I confess that army green doesn't thrill me either. Appaloosa keeps me thinking of horses, and there are some really nice translucentish browns that horses can affect. A coppery, horsey brown with a cream headtube and some tastefully selected leather bits to butch it up might be fun.

[RBW] Colorado Autumn S24O
Timing: Generally the weekend closest to Sept. 22 is the best for aspen colors, but 1 week on either side still catches a lot. So Sept. 21-22 is ideal for aspen colors, and I have something already scheduled the weekend before that, leaving Sept. 28-29 as the second option. Preferences? Camping: I greatly prefer camping in National Forest and foregoing a campground. Is that fine? Location: I like Kip's suggestion of Kenosha Pass as a fairly central meeting point. There are several great options we have. 1) Starting from Kenosha Pass itself, there is some great single track on the Colorado Trail up toward Georgia Pass (section 5 of the CT), with camping in some aspen various places before it gets too steep. Stop, set up camp, then day ride the pass and go from there? 2) Boreas Pass out of Como is a ride I've wanted to do, and there looks to be great camping up a ways along Tarryall Creek, with some loop options via Gold Dust Trail and other roads in the area. It appears (from my Trails Illustrated map) that no ATV's are allowed in that area on Boreas Pass or Gold Dust Trail. Folks could also ride to Breckenridge and back if desired. So, hearing back on your choice of date and ride/camp as well as if you would be able to go with fragrance free soap/shampoo/laundry detergent, etc for a week or two prior so I could come would be wonderful (I know that's a BIG ask). Be prepared for Colorado's range of Autumn weather: Sunny and 70 - snowy and 20, and everything in-between -- possibly all within an hour or two. The gear ain't all fitting in a front basket for this one if you're prepared. Grin.

[RBW] Re: Colorado Autumn S24O
Och! I meant to add that most likely my family (wife and 4 kids from age 8 mo. - 12 years) would be driving me there (it's that or I make a 3-4 day tour of it and bike myself there, unless someone from the Springs is going, has a scent free car and room for a mammoth and bags. Grin.). So, an option is to have a family/car accessible camp site or a site that is a short bikepack/hike in, as a base camp (Sect. 5 of the CT in the N. end of South Park has some great options for this), then ride from there. So families could come, spend time together, and those who want to ride on can.

I think a glossy black frame with a cream headtube, honey Brooks, and shellacked cork grips would look fantastic. Then again, I just put the finishing touches on a green Hunqapillar over the weekend, and that looks great too. I don't think you can go wrong either way, but there is an undeniably timeless, classy quality to black. The long, low-slung appearance of the Appaloosa is reminiscent to me of the classic Jaguar E type, which looks stunning in black but I can't even imagine in olive drab...

Re: [RBW] Unknown Coast Weekend Ride, September 14-15
I've just been planning out a tour that would include both the Unknown Coast and the dirt part just south of it known as the Lost Coast. The Unknown Coast has some extremely steep sections (well over 20% for longish sections) and the Lost Coast has steeper sections and, as I mentioned, is not paved. I have ridden the Unknown Coast in both directions, touring, without having to walk, but I expect substantial hiking when I get to the dirt. It'll be great! A friend and I rode south on the coast a few years ago. We did the Unknown Coast, and both of us really want to go back and tackle the Lost Coast too. Because it's there and we didn't do it, and also because it skirts around some bothersome traffic. I usually tour on Pasela 1.5s, but the Schwalbe Marathon 2.0s will grace the Atlantis for this trip.
