I was on a bike tour in Wisconsin last summer, SAGBRAW, about 300 or so people. Don't recall the model (maybe Ram?) but several times I spotted an orange with cream head tube Rivendell, locked up at camp, etc. Finally on the last day I met the owner outside a store. There was also a Waterford on the tour. They are out there.
