[RBW] Thank you and "Enjoy the Ride!"

[Deacon Patrick]

I’m going to be riding off a different direction. Thank you all on this group — 
you have helped me tremendously as I’ve dived into wrenching and fine tuning 
the my rides. I am grateful for all you’ve given me. May God startle you with 
joy!

With abandon,
Patrick

Dude, where you going? You're quite welcome to ride off in different directions

just take a break while you go explore?

DP, there isn't much more to say after so many kind words have been extolled by 
the group. It's touching and deeply felt. Wishing you all the best and if you 
ever decide on a second act here you'll be welcome with open arms and many 
grins:) :) ;) :) :)

Take care!

I totally understand where hes coming from, in my 48 years as a cyclist it's 
always been just one of many interests and my interest in cycling waxes and 
wanes. 
People come and go from the list, but just generally their comings and goings 
are not highlighted.
At some point my bike builds will stabilize & I'll just get on with riding and 
probably not visit much either. I think that is probably true with most people, 
but DP is fairly unique in his deliberateness.

Patrick,

Thank you for your inspiration and counsel. I will miss your regular posts
and adventures reminding me of what to aim for. You enriched my life in
many ways, even if I've been slow to heed your counsel. But it's there as a
beacon. Don't doubt it.

I hope you stay. I hope to be able to visit you one day.

RE: [RBW] Thank you and "Enjoy the Ride!"

[Allingham II, Thomas J. (Retired Partner)]

Patrick:

This is terribly disappointing.  Your posts and pictures, and also your 
wide-ranging discussions, have been inspiring and thought-provoking for me – we 
are not always in agreement, but your manifest enjoyment of life (not just 
bikes, but bikes, too!) has been a great joy to see on this list.

Like others, I hope you're not leaving because of a slight, real or perceived, 
in something posted on this site.  I believe there is genuine respect for you 
here, as a number of replies in this thread eloquently reflect.  Perhaps you'll 
reconsider, but whether you do or not, I wish you the very best in your travels 
in your new direction.  Stop in and see us from time to time!

Very best,
Tom

Re: [RBW] Thank you and "Enjoy the Ride!"

[Grant Petersen]

If DP was sincere (and we all believe he was), then I doubt he's sitting
home reading the gush and glowing...which isn't to say slow down on it,
just that...he might not be actually reading it.

I asked him to call and he did and I said *whuddup*, and he sounded as he
always has (we've spoken to him A LOT over the years), and I asked if there
was an event that lead to this, or like, if he was reacting to something
somebody may have said or something, and he laughed that off and said
No-Tho I don't remember his exact words, he said something along
the lines of he just wanted to spend less time online. Remember, he has had
a remarkable life and continues to live a life much different than most of
us do, and it's not a surprise that he OD's at a lower dose than the rest
of us. He seemed as happy as ever, I'm glad to report!

Re: [RBW] Thank you and "Enjoy the Ride!"

[ascpgh]

The concern over DP's vector change clearly showed the impact that his out 
of the ordinary life and shared narrative provided the group. 

I always heard that charity and good acts are meaningless if observing 
their delivery is necessary. I think this list truly would want him to hear 
their departing salutations, compliments and tidings, but if they go 
unheard they are still as true. A tree has fallen in the woods...

Re: [RBW] Thank you and "Enjoy the Ride!"

[Patrick Moore]

I expect that Patrick hasn't so much lost interest in cycling as in cycling
lists, given what I've heard about the benefit that cycling, and in
particular, Rivendellian/Grantian cycling has had to his life. I know
another Patrick who ought to spend less time bothering cycling lists ...

I can sorta relate. I use to be a frequent contributor to this list and 
certainly checked-in on it daily. I don't think it was time wasted at all 
and am quite grateful for everything it showed me or encouraged me to see. 
After my daughter was born, there just wasn't the time, or energy, to 
follow this list as closely. My riding scaled back a bit. And in fact, I 
even sold my Hilsen. I still cycle daily and have even branched out my 
cycling by returning to mountain biking (I sold my Hilsen to buy a 
Krampus). I peek in on the Riv website from time to time and enjoy it. My 
LHT is set-up in a very Rivish manner with Noodles, Brooks, VP platform 
pedals, Sugino cranks, etc. But I have some other bikes which are less 
Rivish.  Some of you I still follow on Flickr. I continue to post on Flickr 
but not quite as frequently. My daughter just turned 3. It's amazing how 
the time flies. I'm stuck at work today but it's slowed down for the 
moment. Wishing you all the best. My favorite part of this list has always 
been and remains ride reports. Keep them coming.

I should add that I really enjoyed DP's humor and insights. He deactivated 
his Flickr page a while back. He had some great images on that.

Mike: what are those dangerously heresy-skirting "other bikes"? Photos?

Daughters: even more expensive than bikes. My daughter is 15, so I have
plenty of free time; just no money (or life). Daughters if well raised
become as they get older less demanding of time but far more demanding of
your money -- lessee: this month: driving lessons; deposit on summer trip
to Ireland; cash for dress for tonight's dance because, well, she didn't
think to order cheaper online until last night; etc etc etc.

I still cycle as avidly as I did 30 years ago when I started up again after
a 9 year hiatus; I'm just slower.

a 62-year-old just 1 year older than himself).

Be careful not to blink Mike or you'll turn around and your daughter will 
be 13.  Of course every age has its great moments but those ages when they 
are tiny are pretty cool.

If you poke around a bit your can see the other bikes here:
https://www.flickr.com/photos/41335973@N00/

My main go to bikes are my LHT and my singlespeed Cross Check. Lately I've 
been doing a ton of riding on the CC. This past summer, which has gone by 
far too quickly, I usually got out once a week for a ramble around the dirt 
roads in the Mt Hood NF. Most of this riding I did on my LHT. I did manage 
a 5 day tour on my Big Dummy which was pretty awesome, taking in miles of 
dirt roads. There's some photos here:
https://www.flickr.com/photos/41335973@N00/albums/72157667520325613

While there are no more Rivs in my quiver, you can tell I have plenty of 
Surlys. I love Surly. My CC is 10yrs old and I just love that bike. I've 
threatened to sell it in the past but glad I haven't. My LHT is the bike I 
wish my Hilsen was. The Hilsen was awesome but it shimmied at speed and 
with a load. Furthermore, I like the stopping power of cantis over Silver 
brakes, especially with a load or off-road. I recently put a Paul brake on 
the front and am kicking myself for waiting so long. I'll eventually get a 
Paul for the rear and for my CC.

The other bikes are my Krampus which I really haven't ridden much this 
year. On the days where I could go mountain bike, I just felt like going 
dirt road rambling. Just a little less stressful and overall better for my 
head if that makes sense. 

I also have a Salsa Vaya which I really want to like but the reality is I 
don't. I'm not anti disc brakes but I just prefer cantis and the set-up on 
my 10yr old CC. In fact, I'm thinking of selling the Vaya and getting a 
second CC (geared). My Joshua Bryan randonneur is disassembled in the 
basement and I need to work towards selling the frame. The last 
randonneuring event I did was the Cascade 1200k and I don't see myself 
doing riding like that anymore. Hell, I'd be more likely to race cross 
before I randonneured again.

Parenthood: As tough as it is I love it so much. Next year my wife and I 
are planning on making a better effort at doing some care camping with our 
daughter. I think she'd like it.

I turned 50 earlier this month. While I ride daily, the monthly mileage is 
not what it was years ago and that's okay. I don't feel 50 and certainly 
don't act it. My plan is to keep riding as long as I can. I love the idea 
of growing older on the bike.

Wow!! Thats the first time I have heard of someone liking their Surly better 
than their Rivendell!!! Sounds like a much loved bike.

2 daughters are the blessing of our lives. Seasons pass in life, huh? One 
married and happy, one single and in youth ministry. We ride incidentally, 
along the way, because we can and like to. It's a luxury to have nice bikes 
available, nice to have any bikes available. Life is rich regardless.
