During today's So Cal Rivendell Riders ride up Silverado Cyn to (just below) Modjeska Peak, down to Modejeska Cyn & back via Santiago, it occurred to me that in the the last week my Atlanis has been on a S24O (last Sat & Sun), carrying camping gear; a quick overnight lodging tour (Mon & Tues) to San Diego, a couple of road rides, and finally a mostly dirt road ride with several thousand feet of elev gain. All the above with the same tires (pumped up once before the S24O) and without fussing with the racks. OK, I admit I thought about taking them off for today but heck, I'd just have to put them back on, no point.
While the Atlantis is clearly the most versatile bike Riv makes (there's fightin' words!), there's plenty of other Rivendells that could do all of the above. There's not a lot of bike manufacturers that can make the same claim. In celebration, tomorrow I'll clean the Atlantis. Mud, dust, & Gatorade makes a yucky coating. Oh, and David was tasked to get photos of today's ride up tonight. Epic ride, with 80% Rivendell participation. dougP -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
