Jason,
That's fantastic. Your pictures are great, they really convey the ride and
the day. You may have lost sight of your tan sidewalls but have probably
never been clearer on why you have fenders on your bike!

Jason,
What a nice mix of terrain - and incredibly scenic. Especially like the
wetland image.
Thanks for all the inspiring photos you continue to post.
Best,

Hmmm. First time I’ve had Google Groups tell me “Your message is too big”,
and then randomize the photos. Well, I tried to put them in-line, but at
least they’re named so you can identify them.

I like that picture. It well shows why it’s my favorite time of year to
ride, and doing it on a new Clem has made it all the more enjoyable.

Sweet spot to ride to, Jason! I love when clouds and mountains play and
make me wonder what I should be wearing. Grin. Have you turned your wee
beastie to any trail riding in those hills? If so, how does it do? I've
been amazed how I can ride all terrains, with a bit more caution and LCG
Thanks Carl. I've been fortunate in so many ways, not the least of which
was getting my butt into the saddle of this fine bicycle that seems to have

Hi Rich S.,

Do the Granola bars only come in 31.8 clamp diameter? If so, which stem are
you using? I like the look of the bar and the sweep is not as far back as
the Bosco which I like, even on the long TT Clem.

Hey Mark,
The tires are 44s (42 actual) and the frame is a 610. I only have about 3mm
clearance on either side in the rear... but I just took it on a three day
gravel/fire road tour from Boone to Black Mountain and it rode great. No
problems so far!

Getting air on a Clem would be a feat indeed! That green is the best color
for a Clem I think, with Grilver a close second. I'm enjoying all of these
posts.

It's my new 1x setup. SRAM 11-50 rear cassette (on a Shimano XT hub body),

I'm curious about the drivetrain on your awesome Atlantis. What's your
crankset and cassette? Which shifters do you use?

ride in the country to give one time to ponder, I do plenty myself on every
ride, and it feels therapeutic to me. That's a beautiful Atlantis, BTW,

Thank you. And yes, that's an MIT Atlantis with the long wheelbase. It's set
up with a 1x drivetrain that makes it look even longer!

Ooooh, Lithocarpus! Active contemplation on a bike ride is a beautiful way
to wrestle with life's core questions, and none is more core than death.
Backwards as it seems, our understanding of death defines our understanding
of life, and our value, meaning, and purpose. May your rides help you
I’m sorry for the loss and especially for this young person’s family. Death of
someone young and unexpected is hard to process.
Your Atlantis looks good and it’s great you had a nice long ride to think and
relax. Is that one of the new long wheelbase Atlantis frames?
