Re: [RBW] Randi Jo Fab bartender bag for RBW
I ended up ordering a bag from Randi’s new color line today.

I mentioned this on similar IG post but my experience is that if you inquire with RandiJo she’ll probably tell you that if you send her a patch (Rivendell or whatever) she’ll work with you to get you the Bartender you want.

Hey, that’s my neck of the woods! If you are going to be staying in Boulder city, you really need to check out the hikes in that area. How fit are you? Goldstrike Hot Springs is an amazing, not to be missed hike. It is very challenging and there is some rock scrambling so you have to be in shape to do it. I, myself, couldn’t have done it alone, and needed a boost over several boulders on the way. If you want something easier, you can bike the wetlands in Henderson. Also, someone mentioned Valley of fire, and he is absolutely right. That will be about an hour’s drive north for you, but you’ll never see anything like it again. If you want to hike in Summerlin, a nice community near Vegas, Red Rock Canyon is the place for you. Also, tons of people ride bikes out there, but I think mostly on the roads which has never been my thing. This should whet your appetite!

[RBW] Re: 0mm offset Nitto Quill Stem
I don’t know the exact measurements but an 8cm Nitto dirt drop might give you something not too far off from that LD stem but without all the adaptors and extra boltage. ButI guess that crust one is a 4cm. With them being that close, you might as well try the 5cm technomic. Then you can decide if an extra cm less is really worth it. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.

Hey Paul. I was in Las Vegas last fall for a trade show. On the last day, I rented a bike from a shop there for the day. They have a plan where they will drive you out to the sites, also rides where they lead you. I just pick the bike up there and Road. I went to red Rock canyon which is just outside of town. Very beautiful, not too much traffic. I'll see if I can dig up the bike shop name.

It looks like I will be in the Las Vegas, NV area the week of May 20th. This will be my first trip to the area other than a brief layover at the airport years and years ago. I'm not sure I will get any riding in as I will be with an elderly gentleman, although some might say I am about at the elderly stage myself. I guess that's a matter of perspective but he's 25 years older than me. Ha! I met this gentleman via cycling. I'm sure he would love to ride if he could but I fear for his balance on a 2 wheeler. Perhaps I will rent a bike and try for a short ride while he has dinner with his friend. Our hotel is near the Boulder area so I do plan on seeing the dam. I'm not really interested in casino gambling aspect but I'm sure there are some cool areas to visit within an hour or two of the area. Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

"...bottle cages won't do." Because of size? Aesthetics? I use King Cage Iris cages for my Klean Kanteen 27 oz bottles and they work great. They look to be the same diameter as this hydroflask: https://www.hydroflask.com/24-shave-ice-limited-edition/color,bluehawaii,a,92,o,339. The Iris cage handles the stainless steel, taller bottles very well. Riv is sold out at the moment, but their link is: https://www.rivbike.com/products/king-cage-iris-stainless-water-bottle-cage King Cage is: http://kingcage.com/index.php?products=yes With abandon, Patrick -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.

Remember when Randi Jo Fab made bartender plus bags for Rivendell? That was before I knew what these were, and before I had need of one. I bring my Hydroflask everywhere, and bottle cages will not do. I tucked my flask in the side pocket of my Saddlesack and I got as far as the end of my driveway before it bounced out, denting it and chipping away at the tangerine paint. But I hear a Bartender Plus can take a flask this size! Rare as hen’s teeth I’m sure, but thought I’d ask if someone has an unused or unloved RBW Bartender bag they want to sell me. If not, I see Randi Jo has released the summer colors of the bag on her website and I’ll head there instead. In fact, I’ll head there anyway, because Mom should have one for her new Cheviot... Anyway, you know where to find me. Thanks! Leah -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.

Re: [RBW] Re: Remember Islabikes?
Oh, it matters. Would I have sprung for the $$$ Islabike after buying the Giant only months before if it did not? A bike mechanic at REI was servicing both boys’ bikes and he knew the hill on our school commute. Baby Bear had been frustrated on the Giant - he was proud of his bright yellow new bike, but he could never make it up the hill without walking the bike and feeling defeated. The mechanic picked up the Giant and said, “If you have a child who will ride THIS bike up THAT hill, you have a very good kid. This bike is HEAVY.” And it was. It weighed as much or more than my older son’s bike. It weighed as much as my child, or nearly. I was heartsick. I sold that thing and bought that Islabike quicker than a jackrabbit on a date. Baby Bear took off on that little red rocket and beat us up the hill every darn day. He hung onto that bike for years before I finally insisted he needed the next size up. It matters.

Re: [RBW] Re: Remember Islabikes?
Removing the drive train? You mean to make it a stride a bike? The bikes being discussed are for kids presumably well-past that stage. And sure, my guy might not "care" but only because he has no baseline. In between the Islabike and the WOOM, I did assemble a nifty vintage GT Mt. Bike, complete with custom 150 cranks that I had a friend machine for me. He seemed perfectly content. But after a downhill spill, I decided to spring for the WOOM, remembering how happy I (and Mack) was with the Islabike. I'm not fussy or overprotective or the spoiling, get him what he wants only the best kind of parent, but a nice bike for my kid, absolutely. Cost is about 3 sets of Compass/Rene Herse tires, or a mid-price wheel set from Rivendell.
