Dick, Add me to the list of those who have drooled over your stable. Great bikes and great pictures as well! I found your collection when I was looking for everything I could find about the Bombadil and your pictures and comments did two things: they pushed me over the edge of my decision to actually spend that much on a bike (as opposed to a Sam H. or a Surly Long Haul Trucker) and they made me at least briefly consider a color of paint other than the clear coat. That red makes for the best looking non-clearcoat Bomba that I've seen (though I decided to stick with the bare steel look.) You certainly haven't shirked on the parts for any of your bikes and I shudder to think how much money those pictures represent, but the results are beautiful and the bikes are clearly both enjoyed and shared, so more power to you! (And in a more rational moment I realize I should count my excellent good fortune that I can afford a Rivendell at just shy of 30 and not bedrudge someone who has worked a few more years than I their Paul brakes and Supernova lights!)
Anyway, good taste, good pictures, thank you for sharing them with us and especially good on you for sharing the bikes themselves so that others can enjoy them! -kent On Nov 7, 11:08 am, Dick Gilpin <[email protected]> wrote: > I¹ve finally got my Sam Hillborne up and running to my liking.
