Time for some individual philosophy: it's a bike not a holy relic. Way too many people buy a nice custom bike, the bike of their dreams, and then don't ride it. To me few things in cycling are sadder than a 10 year old custom bike that still has the original tires, no dirt on it and unblemished paint. Be a bike rider, not a bike polisher. Beausage. Learn it. Live it. ;-) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group. To post to this group, send email to [email protected].
