Besides almost killing myself on Indian Trail it was nice to be able to keep my pace with them even though my bike weighs almost double.

[RBW] Re: Samuel P Taylor Wet and wild Point Reyes Mini Trip. Ride Report and Photos
@Ryan. I have never had any experience with panniers so I cannot compare the two. I can say that with the Load up High it does NOT affect the handling that much at all. In my own opinion, with the load up high it is almost an extension of your own body weight through out the frame and does little to mess with Handling. I may be wrong but its my opinion. 95% of the Bags that are sold at Riv lift the weight up high, so there must be something to it. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners Bunch group.

[RBW] Samuel P Taylor Wet and wild Point Reyes Mini Trip. Ride Report and Photos
Hi Y'all, It was my Uncles 50th Birthday on Saturday so I took the opportunity to make a mini trip out of it and headed out on Saturday morning and caught the first Bart train to Embarcadero to start my Journey. The ride to Fairfax was beautiful and I arrived a bit early so I decided to ride out to Samuel P Taylor and doubled back to Fairfax for the Party. Woke up a bit hung over and headed back to Samuel P Taylor for some relaxation and to wait for a buddy to drive and meet me for the night. The weather was amazing and clear for the night, but Monday would be a different story. Started riding to the Point Reyes Ranger Station to check in for my campsite for the night and proceeded to Point Reyes Station for munchies at Bovine Bakery and to wait for the Rain to subside so I could push to camp. After eating to many Pastries and a few pieces of there amazing Pizza, I pressed on to Sky Camp. I decided to Hike up 3 1/2 miles up Horse Trail to Sky Camp and it was amazing even though I was getting rained on Hard all the way up. Half way up and being soaked head to toe, I was second guessing my decision to camp for the night. But I pressed on. Set up camp and decided to wait out the storm. I was in my tent from 8:00 Pm to 7:00 Am waiting out the storm, but the views in the morning of the fog rolling in was definitely worth the cold and wetness. It was absolutely beautiful. I was supposed to stay another night at Hawk Camp but that was put on hold since everything I had was soaked to the bone and I had to ride back in my flip flops, since my Sambas were filled with water in the morning. I will save that trip for when the weather is better. The medium saddle sack and my Barsack kept everything dry, with a little help from some Garbage Bags and Ponchos. A great trip, meet allot of fellow bikers along the way and will definitely do it again. Here are a few Pictures of the trip. http://www.flickr.com/photos/54527498@N06/sets/72157627832794810/ Cheers!

[RBW] High Rocky Place, Mt Diablo Solo S240 on the SimpleOne
When I originally saw Grants Post awhile back on the S240 he did to High Rocky place, I knew I had to do it. I wanted a challenge and I wanted a test, so I decided to do it on the SimpleOne. I am glad I did and it was an awesome Solo Trip. Thank you Grant for the directions and words of advice it made my trip a successful one. I headed out Monday Morning and rode from Lafayette to Borges Ranch in Walnut Creek, Grabbed some Water and hit the Briones Mt Diablo Trail en route to Rock City. I meet a nice couple who had a flat and no cement, so I helped them out and set off. Some good Karma for what I had ahead of me. Allot of walking along the Trail, but I didn't mind at all. The scenery was absolutely Gorgeous and I wasn't even up the Mountain Yet. It took about 3 hours to get to Rock City, where I had some of my lunch and relaxed for an hour or so. It was time to push to the South Gate Junction for another break and to prepare for the push to Juniper. The Simple One in its 32/22 combination proved to be perfect for the climb and the load(45 lbs w/bike?) I was very happy with the performance and solid feel of the One. Made the 2.5 mile climb to Juniper and took a well deserved 3 hour rest, finished my lunch/Dinner, and waited for the sun to go down a bit until I pushed to camp. When I arrived I was awe struck at what was before me, the grandeur and peacefulness of High Rocky Place is definitely one I will always remember. The Wind was nasty (take a look at the video) and I am thankful I brought a hammer (Thanks G) and earplugs. I think I logged about 3 hours of sleep. Nonetheless it was truly Amazing. When I got home I slept for 13 hours straight. Pictures tell a better story and I am very happy I was able to do it on the S-One. http://www.flickr.com/photos/54527498@N06/sets/72157627402365342/ Enjoy!

Re: [RBW] Recomended paths to ride around RBWHQ and surrounding areas?
I Highly Suggest doing some riding in the Lafayette/Moraga Area. You have some trails and big bike lanes everywhere.

Anywhere up in the Castle Rock/Shell ridge area is allot of fun too if you want to do some trails. Beautiful Area Too. If you are ever passing by the Jaguar Dealership in Walnut Creek give me a wave.

[RBW] Re: SO/Quickbeam options
+1 for the SimpleOne. It is a beautiful handling bike on and off road. I just took mine on a nice trail ride on the foothills of Mt Diablo yesterday. The bike was amazing off road and very, very comfortable. With the white Industries 22T freewheel it was a dream off road and the Moustache bars allowed me to sit back and crank away at the hills. It was amazing to feel the bike absorb all of the bumps and rocks, with my self weighing in at 230 and on Jack Browns. I had a deposit on mine since January and I am very happy I was patient enough and waited it out. This was a dry run on my s240 to High Rocky place in a few weeks.

Just wanted to get a few opinions on putting a medium sackville sack ( with silver hoop) and a barsack on my RB1. My buddies say I am crazy to put this on a true road bike but I beg to differ. http://www.flickr.com/photos/54527...@n06/ I a 250 biggin and I want to get some opinions on if I am pushing the limits for this frame.
