Congrats Sean! Like I said, a bike that makes one smile (and remember the smile!) is a great thing... I am envious of your chance to ride a Cheviot before ordering. Not that I have any doubts but it would have been nice.
My build should end up very close to yours, Tubus rear rack, Albatross bars, etc. I have a Haulin' Colin front rack that might work and will be good for experimenting, otherwise it will be a Mark's like yours. And I agree with Joe that the grey makes it possible to do a lot of subtle (or not) things with color and accents. Anyway, congratulations! May the frames arrive quickly, at least at the perfect time, and be destined for great rides and fun. I will say I think I am ahead of you on the mixte issue! I ride a yellow Brompton folding bike a lot, for commuting, for errands, for fun, etc. and with that, any sense of being seen as 100% normal faded some time ago. But people see how useful it is, how much fun is possible, what change can look like and it all works out.... well, mostly. :>) Enjoy the new (future) bike and ride!
