Glad to hear everyone is ok.
Sticks and leaves can be dangerous on paths/trails.

Beware, too, not only of sticks but of flying plastic bags. One windy
day I had an errant grocery bag blow into my lower chain run and
entangle itself in the rd, resulting in a disabled drivetrain (I
managed to limp home in proto-fixed gear style.) I now am very wary of
such flying debris.

If you decide you want a pair of the new ones from Riv/Nitto, I have a pair
painted gray, brand new, that I might be willing to sell. Also some old ones,
for that matter.

Yes, I still have the Pereira. It's a fun, wonderful bike. Tony Pereira is a
super fellow. Here is a Flickr set I posted earlier this year:

What frame is it, how much do you value it, is it special, or is it a
workhorse that you just want to get fresh paint on? Tghe answers could
make a big difference in the resulting recommendation.
If it were one of my frames, and if I were in the Bay Area again, it would
go to either DD or
great questions! it is an older bombadil with the double top tube. green.

use it. but i want it to be pretty too.

Hi Jimmy,
I'm the guy from Pittsburgh with the Atlantis. I had a great time in
Manhattan that weekend but I missed Bikeworks NYC, maybe next time.
I got a new Roadeo frame in the mail last week, plan to build it up
over the winter. It is beautiful!
Hope to see you again some time. Take care.

Bikeworks is one of the good ones. Another shop I like is Continuum Cycles.

I have a brand new 52 cm Betty Foy for sale. I bought it around 2 years ago
from Rivendell and it is in perfect, new condition. It has never been

Bicycle Habitat is a pretty good shop in NYC. And there's a Riv-ish place
on 2nd Ave and approx 6th St. When I've been in either of those shops with

known what it is under all the dirt. And been very accomodating.

I apprenticed with an herbalist/wildcrafter for a while who'd pulled
off innumerable ticks in his 30+ years in the field, and he'd always
say if you pull them off within 24 hours there is zero chance of
getting Lyme. He mentioned this to a Duke University infectious
disease specialist who agreed.
