[RBW] Rivendell East Events
Hey Folks, Just curious if there are any Rivendellesque events coming up in the Eastern region. I'm in Loudoun County, west of Washington DC, but I get around to the mid-East coast and near Midwest….. Is there a website with events listed etc.? I saw that Riv East event held in April, 2012……..

Re: [RBW] Cycling Apps
Forgive me if this is a tired topic, but I'd love to have a simple app that tells me how far I've gone as I'm riding based on my iPhone's GPS. Also it would be wonderful to have an app that allows me to record my bikes, swims and runs and then totals them up and so forth. Problem is, many of the apps I've looked into are little rah rah rah personal trainers… Or "here's what you need to do to have ripped abs based on your weight and age and religion and the cycle of the moon"…….and so forth. Any suggestions? >I have a Lucas cyclometer and a pocket watch on one of my bikes - but I mostly >use MapMyRide on my smartphone :.) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.

Re: [RBW] Cycling computers
thing about computers is, at least for me, I spend a lot of time CALIBRATING the damn thing.You set it based on the wheel and tire combination, but that's never correct so for the next seventeen rides you are tweaking it. You watch every mile marker like a hawk to confirm how close to accurate your computer is. So you start doing all sorts of calculations in your head like "OK, that last mile marker my computer said 9.52 instead of 9.50….that means, I need to check it the next time." Then the next time it says 10.54 and you are like "a-ha! I'm onto you. So, halfway through this ride, I'll waste 10 minutes figuring out how to access the calibration function (with one button) so I can take 1 index off the wheel-diameter…or is it add 1 index….hmmm…..doe s smaller number produce a lower or higher reading….h"And then when you turn around on the ride, you are like…."OK gotta stop at PRECISELY at this mile marker and place the wheels down without letting them turn unnecessarily so I can continue my certifiable obsession with accuracy on the return trip……" then the next time your tires aren't the same pressure and you even more screwed up… meanwhile a thousand spring trees have passed you by that you will never again get to see in just that way in just that same afternoon light and thinking about something elegant and free and beautiful…...…..

[RBW] Atlantis in the DC/Baltimore Metro Area?
Folks, Are there any Rivendell Atlantis owners in the DC or Baltimore area? I'd like to set my eyes upon one of these bikes. Is there any store that would have one in stock? I feel myself falling into the "market" for what I think could be a 56cm/26" Atlantis. I'm west of Leesburg right near the end of the W&OD Trail. Anyone?

[RBW] 650B Wheels Needed
Folks, Anyone have a nice set of 650B wheels? I'm building up a Saluki. Something "nice." I'd like to do a 9sp cassette.

[RBW] Bell Question
Folk, Just curious looking over the many bells available What's generally a "better" bell? Brass or Copper? Loud and pretty would be nice Also, I like the big Rivendell hammerstrike bells but I'd like something a little more low-profile for my road bike and if possible, I'd like to mount it somewhere other than on the flats of the drop-bar. On the threadless steer-tube spacers, perhaps? Incredibell has an interesting one that replaces one of your handlebar tape plugs. Thoughts? Thanks...
