[RBW] Why I Aspire
Someday I will own one of the lovely-lugged bicycles that are the subject of this group. As I've mentioned, the thing that keeps me aspiring is the thought of doing this to such a nice bike: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170728473966#ht_25340wt_1256 This is what my bicycles look like after moderate use.

[RBW] Re: Price reduced: FS: Size Medium Fargo, $1,250 plus shipping
I have seen a few 2CVs in the States in my lifetime, but none of the outstanding, inexpensive, creative modern vehicles that are everywhere here (northern England). Citroën really is the Apple of the automobile world, and it's a pity the States are largely denied. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.

[RBW] Re: Seattle in November
Great pics. I was roaming around Discovery Park today, came across the Locks (have you seen the empty lock...very cool), and looked long and hard at the New Red Mill...but not to be...had to pick up a sandwich for home:( On Nov 13, 6:24 pm, René Sterental wrote: > Wonderful autumn photos!

[RBW] Re: resurrectio decals
I imagine they still have them. I got a set a few months back, and they had both kinds at the time. By both I mean over a powdercoat and under a clearcoat. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.

[RBW] resurrectio decals
Hi, Does anyone know where the resurrectio decals went? I was looking for a set of them and I can't seem to find them on the website anymore. -sv -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.

It's a combination of availability of food stops, what's at those food stops, and how much time you want to spend. My "inner man" has been known to be fussy, and on more than one occasion things I've eaten on long rides have disagreed with me. Also, the quality of "food" varies a lot. The first time I did that brevet, I bought a hamburger at Royal Farms at mi 105 and discovered that after a day under the particle beams employed to maintain heat, whatever that hamburger was originally made of underwent a rather disturbing metamorphosis, being transmuted into something that quite turned my stomach. That's bad under any circumstances, but especially detrimental in the final 20% of a long ride in which every mile is adding to your lifetime "longest ever." There's a limit to how much junk food I can stand. Earlier this year on a Permanent I was reduced to buying a lottery ticket, because all the available "food" I saw in the store made the gorge rise. If every convenience store was like that bakery/coffee shop, it would be another story. I don't know if I could live on pecan sticky buns, but by god I would be willing to try! Finally, being a cycling snail, I can't afford to spend the sort of time the fast folk do at eating establishments. I honor them for their use of time, and have far more respect for people who sit down and eat a real honest to god meal than those who suck slime from a little packet, but you've got to be a lot faster than I am to be able to burn an hour and a half at a restaurant eating lunch! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.

[RBW] Pleasant surprise
I hadn't clicked thru the photos on the website in a while & noticed the lead one was new. Lots of new-to-me pix, including that awesome shot of Rene's Hunq. Several with amazing clouds, sunsets / sunrises, etc. There's more than enough there for a Rivendell calendar.or two or three. Some of us still like to use paper calendars with a new, wonderful photo each month. Anyone else think this is worthwhile? Maybe a tie-in for the 2013 charity? dougP -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.

[RBW] Re: WTB Bolt-On + High Flange Hubs
Have you seen the anti-theft skewers from Velo Orange? They use a special Allen wrench which you can easily carry, and have a nice, clean look. I find them very easy to use. VO also makes some high-flange hubs that you could pair with them. Just another thought. Steve -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.

Smitty. Ask Phil wood directly, I have what I think are the rivy hubs and the use Allen bolts to secure.
