fine. I had total confidence r
Is that just a regular road bike with a rack mounted to it with P-clamps?
I really like that.
Any wobbling? or criticism?

Maybe mounting a light as well.

Those goat heads are a mean plant. I think Marathon Pluses with about

I would consider the Vittorias beacause I like the traditional look -
- similar to my old Detto Pietros. If anyone knows a source for large
sizes (48 and up), kindly post a link.

The sizing and the amount of seatpost showing are line with the Rivendell recommendations, because this is an expanded geometry with the 6 degree upsloping top tube.
If the upslope were more like 1.5 or 2 degrees (Hilsen or Roadeo), that much post showing would be out of line with Rivendell rec
How's that frame size? It seems smaller (based on the seatpost/stem) than
what Rivendell would recommend. Being in Berkeley I'd assume that you
picked it up in person, though, so I'm probably wrong. :-)

Thanks. I ended up ordering the Exustar SRT 707 on the interwebz.
The brown truck should deliver them today. I'll try and post details

Then there is flattish dirt riding on top, with no water except what you can
beg from car drivers. One can continue east to Highway 65 and do a loop back
into the Grand Valley at ~120miles. I tried it once and called my wife 6
miles from home for a bailout. Yes I was that hot and tired.

Next time you decide to run it...drop a line! I would certainly make time to
come up from Denver for a beauty like that.
I've done a bunch of mountain biking in GJ, but never taken in
the fantastic rides like this.

Condolences. Personally I mostly get flats on dark rainy nights, but my only
experience with goatheads has been while camping in NM & AZ. I did not like
them. Vt roads are bad enough without them.
As a commuter I found that Tire Tuffy and a beefy rear wheel (Avocet Cross

I like hooks in the ceiling for singles, but I should think you could
fashion a very nice one out of wood that would handle a variety of wheel
sizes and even tandems.
I thought ten's a lot of bikes, until I counted and realized we were up to
seven, and that with both kids long gone.
