i must have a skewed impression of rivendell. their bikes are well priced, but not cheap ( but high quality and built to last ). why is rapha so demonized by some? my smartwool socks were very expensive to purchase, but they have lasted forever. why not smartwool jerseys? expensive at first, but in the long run, a great investment. and the quality of rapha is flawless. by the way, i love my roadeo and i regretted selling my ram. i finally drove down to riv in walnut creek and talked to keven about my problem and we figured ( a good thing for riv ) that i should buy a roadeo to fix my problem. basically, i am a strong believer in the riv philosophy, but i think that it extends to many styles of riders. i ride my roadeo on club rides with some "cat 3 & 4" riders. i am not on the clock and just riding with these guys is a pleasure and once in a while, i can surprise them on a hill. most of the time, i just enjoy " spinning" on my roadeo and checking out the landscape. bottom line: cycling should be fun, period!!!
