I live near Montgomery, AL but every other week work in Cedartown with a Rambouillet packed in the car. I ride a couple of nights after work, usually solo, but sometimes with the Rome Rides A Bike gang. Give a shout anytime you want to set something steel framed up! -- You received this

Hi Rich, I'm attempting to compile a list of RBW/iBob riders in the area. I don't yet have a Riv, but I have a stable of steel bikes, Bridgestone, Trek and Bianchi. Do you know Tony Scott? He just got a beautiful Terra Firma. Cheers, Bill in Roswell, GA On Friday, December 16, 2016 at

If it's a sage green Sam then quite possibly. I rode to St. Mtn. one day last week to look at the tent camping sites. For me an easy Sub 24 ride/camp out. A little over an hour one way from my house. Riv/iBob ride would be great! Best regards, Richard Sent from my iPhone > On Dec 15, 2016,

No kidding? Joe, you're in the middle of good, long country ride territory. Yup, we'll have to do that after the holidays. Orthopedic told me yesterday that I can't really exercise until after holidays as it takes a while for synthetic cartilage to settle in. Long, slow bike rides will be just

Thank you for sharing the photos, Jock. Great to see them all. You have quite the stable. I didn't know you have a Ram, also. Is the Soma a Stanyan? I know a few guys who've built up Smoothies. The Stanyan is slightly lighter tubing? A bit surprised that the Ebisu is heavier. I will

Bill, you do make some good points. I just want it all - lively ride that can carry a 20 lb. camping load (being a lightweight backpacker). Yeah, nothing can do everything well. If I were going to do a heavy duty tour I would get a bike appropriate for that. The Roadeo is much like bikes I

Steve P is correct. The list was on Paceline. $1600 for frame, fork, headset, and one color paint. The Wolverine wasn't in NYT! NYT had an article about how getting what you love is more satisfying. However, getting what you love doesn't necessarily mean you'll stop wanting something else!

Yes, Brewster, thanks. Although it's "Limited" and not the "A", so some would say not-so-great. It was a fantastic ride for many years and many thousands of miles--so well-crafted. Gorgeous. It's right above my bench. The thing's in wonderful shape and will put it back together one of these

What's the NYT article on the Wolverine? If bike packing is the hole your looking to fill in your stable and you've had your eye on Riv's I think that's your answer... One of the 650b Atlanti or June would be sweet. That being said those Lyon's appear to be a great bike at an attainable price
