Sorry Michael - I may have nicked that post accidentally. We had a few weird ones pop up over the weekend. To be very clear, I would not in any way trust them to be a legit source. They are not a group member, so I suspect it's similar to the issues we had with another random gmail account.

[RBW] NYC based bike campers

Hi all, I recently did a packratters organized bike camp, and realized how much I enjoyed the quiet and being disconnected after a long ride (we went up to Croton). I've been trying to find other opportunities to do it again, I know about the 718 organized rides (its my local bike shop), but

[RBW] Re: Where can I read try out a ton of different Rivendell models?

Your strategy is good (since it was very similar to mine in 2010): read a good bit about it, think about which bike you might get, go to Riv HQ (many reasons to be in Northern California at some point, right?) and try some out. You will enjoy the Rivendell ride quality (or your money back,

[RBW] Re: Where can I read try out a ton of different Rivendell models?

Do they usually have most models for test-riding there? Riv Headquarters is several bays in an industrial park, big roll-up garage space. One of the bays is the "showroom". There are usually about 20-25 built up demo bikes there. Those demo bikes usually represent what is available right

I've been riding a large Raleigh Cadent 1 which is a hybrid I bought in 2021. I attached a sizing chart! [image: Sizing] Honestly, I started looking at flights to San Francisco and am leaning towards taking a week vacation before the school year starts back up to go try out some Rivendells. Do

[RBW] Chicago-area Riv riders - North Shore Century

If up for a casual (or not) ride from Evanston to parts north (25, 50, metric Century, 100 miles to WI and back), this is a nice way to begin winding down summer. This year's ride is Sept 15. I'll be out on my Platypus. Hope to see you. North Shore Century

Re: [RBW] Crankset Options and Understanding

don't think of it in crankset size, think of the tire size you want to use. Anything over 45mm is mtn and requries a 52mm chainline. 38-44 is the trick, this could be mt. but a lot of cross/gravel cranks. What dirve train impacts the use. 32-35 is definite cross territory and 46-48mm
