It is not absolutely critical that you use a washer. It is better if you use a washer. Flat washer. Preferably on that will not rust, so stainless or brass.

25-8. The pots are 1.75 and 1.5 liters. That translates to 1.59 and 1.85 quarts. The kettle is 0.9 liters or 0.95 quart. The recipe calls for 4.5 cups of water, or 1.125 quarts plus ingredients.

We might want to rethink Gonzales based on how many fender people are there. The West end has a lot of sand, sticks, and leaves so bucolic RSF would be better for fender people.

[RBW] Re: Planning 72 hours in Marin
Sounds exciting! In Marin county, all of the transit buses have front-mounted bike racks. Though they can be tricky with a tour-loaded bike. Not that you'll need it, but if you get in a bind... From West Point Inn, you're more than halfway up Mt. Tam - You can ramble up on Railroad Grade, then roll another 1/2 mile to the East Peak, where you can hoof to the tallest bit or hike a loop around at parking lot level. Descend (after a couple short climbs) on East Ridgecrest and then West Ridgecrest to either BoFax or the Bolinas Ridge trail. You'll be close to Pt. Reyes Station - there's an excellent shop there called Black Mountain Cycles if you want to drop in and hang out, and grocery store and Bovine Bakery in town. Those campsites are all reasonable distances from one another, so you should have time to enjoy and explore! - Jim / cyclofiend.com -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners Bunch group.

Bill: Revealing my ignorance: this had never occurred to me before. Obvious, once someone points it out, but...well, anyway, another point of inspection. Thanks for pointing it out. Tom (whose cluelessness knows practically no bounds) Allingham From: rbw-owners-bunch@googlegroups.com [mailto:rbw-owners-bunch@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Bill Lindsay Sent: Tuesday, November 05, 2013 9:47 AM To: rbw-owners-bunch@googlegroups.com Subject: [RBW] Re: Velocity Rims, Again Corwin Yes, the geometry of the brake determines the path the brake pad takes to the rim. Cantilever pads dive as they go inward. The sidewalls of the A23, tilt slightly in the wrong direction for cantilevers. The brakepads strike kind of a glancing blow. It's not a major problem, but it does need to be part of your regular inspection of your bike to make sure you readjust the pads as they wear. In many cases I've seen brakepads dive so the edge of the brakepad sneaks under the rim, and as the pad wears futher, that edge becomes a ledge, and can actually catch under the rim. In very severe cases of neglect you could dive under the rim into the spokes. Some classic touring bikes used to come with rims that tilted in an upside down V shape, optimal for diving cantilever pads. Caliper and centerpull brakes, with the pivot point above the rim, cause the brake pads to rise as they move inwards (on the arc of a circle). The A23 is tilted more or less perpendicular to that rising path. As the pad wears, it'll still strike the brake track in approximately the same spot. Boulder celebrates their offering of the A23 and A23 O/C as their perfect rim. I think it's really close, but if I could make any adjustments, tweaks to the brake track would be my suggestions.

Re: [RBW] Re: Dumb mechanics question about Bleriot binder bolt and washer.
While Bill's knowledge is vastly superior to mine, and I do mean vastly - the Bleriot does require a washer. Unlike my Waterford, the seatpost lug binder is not threaded for a screw. Michael - when I've had to replace various M5 and M6 bolts and washers, I've taken samples to the local hardware store and gotten replacements.

[RBW] Re: Fall = fenders
Beautiful combination. I was skeptical about cream fenders on the Betty Foy when Keven first suggested it and chose silver for my local build. When the local bike shop made a mistake and put cream ones on, once I saw them on the bike I knew I'd made the right choice. I run fenders year round here in Vancouver, rain or shine.

I have the same tool, and it does cut the jagwire compressionless better than the spiral cable. Good advice on angling the cutter, I will try that next time I cut spiral cable.

Re: [RBW] Re: WTB: Park CN-10 cable housing cutter
lol I said the same thing and bought the Shimano TL-CT12 cutter too, albeit mine this year . Tools are investments , buy the best you can the* first* time ! It's funny, when buy certain things you really really want, that you think will give you real joy $50 is nothing and you don't even blink an eye at it ! Electronics, travels, dining whatever . I look at it as keeping the flow of cash going :) It's a wonderful feeling .

Thanks for all the compliments, folks. I got really lucky when I snagged this Riv off of CL this spring. I've had fun and learned a lot in making it into my own. I'll probably leave the fenders on indefinitely, so long as they don't interfere with my enjoyment of the bike. Segue: The light blue bar tape is a bit too subtle. I have some bright blue that I think will look nice. Any other color suggestions? I like greens, both light and dark.

Re: [RBW] Re: WTB: Park CN-10 cable housing cutter
The park tool has cable and cable housing ferrule crimpers on the inside of the cutting jaws. You can use the housing ferrule crimper to round out the cable housing after cutting it. It works quite well his way. Just squeeze hard enough until the housing is rounded. Additional finishing, if needed, can be done by inserting an awl into the cut end of the cable housing. I used to finish the cables sheldon style (grinder/awl) but it was too much work and frankly, it's not needed. I've done a boat load of cables with just the park tool and it's clean every time. This tool is a must if you're going to cut your own cables and housing. Worth every penny new. • Perry -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners Bunch group.

[RBW] Re: Flash San Diego Riv Ride Saturday the 9th.
Ratz. just learned I have a work related lunch meeting on Sat. But... Wild horses are not going to keep me away from this ride. My campus at work is above Penasquitos and there are several ways I can ride and intercept from there. The wheel turns as the wheel turns, but here is a rough approximation of the ride in three parts. Flash Ride Part 1 http://veloroutes.org/bikemaps/?route=106936 Flash Ride Part 2 http://veloroutes.org/bikemaps/?route=106940 Flash Ride Part 3 http://veloroutes.org/bikemaps/?route=106942 I am out of the meeting at 1:00 It will take you approximately 1 hour 38 minutes to ride part 1 at a constant 10 mph. Adding approximately 1 hour more for coffee at Starbucks, contemplation of the larger scheme of things at the waterfall in Penasquitos, and rest breaks, that would put you through the intersection of Del Sur Blvd and Carmel Valley Road at about 1:40. That is the start of part 2. I will intercept you there for part 2. I can get there a little early and can wait for quite some time. Hugh, I sent you a contact number via gmail in case we need to synchronize. Oh, part 3 gives some suggestions for the way back to Pizza Port using some of the new parts of the Coast to Crest Trail. More dirt. - Tom On Tuesday, November 5, 2013 6:32:34 PM UTC-8, hsmitham wrote: Hi SoCal Riv Riders especially San Diegans, Flash ride!

I brought this same thing up on this list or iBob a year or so ago and got all the same responses. So, I bought the cable cutter new and have not regretted it for a SECOND.

Re: [RBW] Re: WTB: Park CN-10 cable housing cutter

Agree! Good cable cutters are one of the things you absolutely should buy new. The Park ones at $35 - $40 are a great value. That's what's on my bench at home. At the shop I always ran Felco. Those are twice as expensive but last forever even at the shop. On Friday, November 8, 2013 3:15:00 PM UTC-8, Edwin W wrote: I figured how many cuts do I make? Why don't I just get a used one for half price? This is the question I ponder on everything bike related (and most of my bike related things are bought used for half price). I brought this same thing up on this list or iBob a year or so ago and got all the same responses. So, I bought the cable cutter new and have not regretted it for a SECOND. There is just no other way to cut cables and housing well on your own with a cheaper tool. I have cut fender stays with it, but I prefer a my father in law's bolt cutter. Maybe I have to buy one of those, too!

[RBW] Ortlieb Rollers!!!!
I traded a jaded pair of Ortlieb Packer Pluses with fellow lister Joe Broach for a pristine pair of Ortlieb Rollers, 'cuz I don't need high end camping luggage, I need high end grocery luggage. I used them for the first time this afternoon, to carry 35 lb of groceries, and mail to Mom. I have a pair of Banjo Bros Market Panniers, which are very large and certainly not bad for the $50/ea price. But MAN! -- those Rollers are NICE!!! So easy to attach to the Fly! So easy to remove! So carefully designed! So elegant in operation! I hauled them into Sprouts this afternoon and shoved them onto the conveyor belt along with my fruit and veg and meat and such. The girl bagger said, Unusual! and I agreed. 35 lb, and they are hardly more than 2/3 full if even that. I bet that I can get two/2/II/dos/deux/do/mbili full paper sacks in each, if I wanted to and if my Fly and my Ram (OT content) could carry such weight. Oh: and riding the Ram for the first time in weeks, I was once again struck by how easy multiple gears make climbing steep hills with heavy loads. Hoooda Thunk?

Re: [RBW] Flash San Diego Riv Ride Saturday the 9th.
Got it Curtis :-) I will be riding fenders on the Sam. Since my somewhat inconsiderate employer decided to book me for lunch tomorrow with a certain South Korean manufacturer of cell phones and ace me out of part 1 of the ride, I left work early today and reconed the west end of Gonzales on my 29er to get an update on trail conditions as they are now. It is always changing base on rain and horse impact. Reference is made to the Gonzales Canyon Map.http://www.sandiego.gov/park-and-recreation/pdf/gonzalestrailmap.pdf I rode all the way West to the SeaBreeze Stables. It led to a somewhat unfortunate conversation between myself and the equestrians. I was diplomatic. The equestrians, not so much. We are not getting through there unless we get chased by nasty people on horses who don't like bicycles. The people don't like us, the horses are OK. I can charm a horse. Too bad since SeaBreeze seems to have co-opted some public ROW that runs through their stables under the high power tension lines. I backtracked to the lagoon trail (blue on the map) and climbed to Las Brisas. Not too hard for me in terms of energy, but ruts, sand, and rockbed took about everything a 19 lb carbon fiber dual suspension Specialized Epic can do. I would not feel comfortable on the fendered Sam. I backtracked and took the power line service road (red on the map) back up to to Dog Park in the Torrey Highlands Park. It is a well groomed fire road, but a bit steep. Worst case, a twenty minute walk up the Service Road with your bicycle. Better, some parts are rideable. I rode it all the way on the Epic. This is Hugh's deal and God bless him for proposing it. I''ll defer to him and the group consensus as we go. Looking forward to seeing you folks tomorrow. -Tom On Friday, November 8, 2013 5:54:43 PM UTC-8, Curtis wrote: Just installed fenders. So I will ride with fenders.
