Thanks for sharing Proteus as well as CPC. When I first moved to this area 30+ years ago I had an old Mercier with tubulars. Proteus had affordable Clement tubulars and I would make the trip up there to buy them. Steve On Wednesday, September 12, 2012 7:10:37 PM UTC-4, Marty wrote: There's

I'm a junior at UMD, and I'll be going. I live in commons so it's a 3 minute walk to get there. It looks like my dad is driving up too. This is a great opportunity to see Grant! As for bike inventory this place is excellent. A bunch of great steel frames to see. They carry Brompton, Pashley,

There's an outside chance I'll be there, but if not, here's a preview - and a bonus. There are* two* great shops in College Park, not far from each other. College Park Cycles is maybe the biggest and best, but Proteus Bicycles is worth a stop too. Larry Black is THE guy at CPC, would give

My son is a freshman at Univ of MD (College Park)... He's been more into cars than bikes, but I'm trying to convince him this is a great opportunity to turn his life around... :) I'd be very interested to see how many students turn out for this event, or whether it's a mostly an older crowd...

Hope to get down early thursday from Pittsburgh, then return on friday. Maybe overnight with some friends in Annapolis, or just grab a room nearby. Looking forward to meeting some of the Riv Rally East folks. Rusty On Monday, September 10, 2012 3:51:46 PM UTC-4, Joan wrote: Should have made

Should have made note that this is DC metro area in case someone hasn't heard of College Park Bikes. They are a Rivendell dealer, I believe. And within 1/2 mile of a metro stop, though of course, you'd have to get there early in order to take your bike on Metro. I might ride there from Arlington
