Looks like a blast! Glad to see folks out enjoying their step throughs to the fullest extent. While I can claim membership in the Rivendell Mixte/Clem club, my Clem is an H model and my mixte only has ONE single lug! (though it's beautiful WI borne TIG beads are sooo lovely, I bought TWO!).

I too rode and Thanksgiving day . there was nary a car out on my sorta rural roads so it was like having my own giant paved trail ! All the geese were out of course as they live in some wetland area I ride by every day. There was a few small flocks flying around, and they're always flying

It looks like all Platy owners need to get a pair of mittens (or at least 1/2 of a pair) so we are properly outfitted for the secret Platy Salute. I'm going to get right on it! Must they be plaid? Love the salute idea...it's so unique and sly; others won't know what the heck we're doing.

Got up early and headed out after six to ride out to the Point where the Allegheny and Monongahela Rivers become the Ohio River. Short Thanksgiving Ride. Will consider taking the brew kit next time, otherwise a perfect lead in to the rest of the

Yankeebird, You dodged a bullet by not giving up on that Clem! I suffered with the extended front end problem too (I had a thread that got a LOT of participation over this issue) but once I got it dialed in with an 8 cm stem it is fantastic. That blue Clem will never be for sale. Ever ever

Leah, She secured her Platypus during the initial offering, but due to Circumstances Beyond Her Control it sat unused for many months- but we are here now, and thankful! This is her second Riv. She had a 51 AHH but it was actually a bit small, despite all the assurances of the WC team. It

Looks like a great time, with some great bikes. Santa Ana winds were howling here in So. Cal yesterday, so no turkey day ride for me. We were just thankful SCE did not shut off our electricity. On Friday, November 26, 2021 at 6:27:13 PM UTC-8 Doug H. wrote: > Clems and Platys and do it all

Clems and Platys and do it all bikes! The Platypus salute is perfect! Thanks for sharing the photos. I did not get to do a Thanksgiving ride but do plan to get some miles in this weekend. Doug On Friday, November 26, 2021 at 9:04:25 PM UTC-5 Bicycle Belle Ding Ding! wrote: > Oh, this warms my

Oh, this warms my post-turkey Thanksgiving heart. A Clem AND a Platy and #RivSisters and a new Platy owner salute. Way to make my night! Since this Platy is on its first cruise, I’m curious where your friend found it. They are so, so rare. I’ve been keeping an eye out a couple of people just
