Thanks for mentioning The Country Bike Shop.  We do have a good number
of Rivendells
available for test rides (currently 12) but we're about as far from
the East Coast as you can
get in Ohio.   We're actually just 15 minutes form the Indiana
border.  Cincinnati, Columbus, Oh.,
Toledo, Ft. Wayne, In. Indianapolis are all about 2 - 2 1/4 hours
away.  Detroit is 3 hours.

And I need to update the picture section of our website as we're down
to a 50cm Butterscotch Saluki
and a Fawn (Champagne) 54 Saluki.

I also was very reluctant to buy a frame 4cm bigger than anything else I had 
been riding for the previous 20 years. Went from a 57 cm Merlin to a 61cm Homer 
and will never look back. I'm now realizing how much a difference comfort and 
versatility mean to my cycling future. It was a leap, and admittedly a 
different style of riding, but one that I'm glad I made. My original concern

 It's amazing how the Riv Fit works so well, yet is discounted out of hand
 by 95%+ of the cycling enthusiasts in N.A.

 I also was very reluctant to buy a frame 4cm bigger than anything else I
 had been riding for the previous 20 years. Went from a 57 cm Merlin to a
 61cm Homer and will never look back. I'm now realizing how much a difference
 comfort and versatility mean to my cycling future. It was a leap, and
 admittedly a different style of riding, but one that I'm glad I made. My
 original concern about standover height has long since faded. I don't buy
 into everything Riv, but I'd recommend everyone take a closer look at what
 they represent.

 I'd be happy to as well. But I'm in Massachusetts. Which means there
 is relatively easy access to a few Rivs at Harris Cyclery. That being
 said I have a Riv I'd be happy to show off.

  Seth Vidal coined a new term: ECWLARBW in another post which stands

  bought my first Riv last year and was frustrated by the inability in
  seeing a Riv bike before ordering.  The folks at Riv were incredibly
  helpful, but it was still hard to spend alot on a bike over the
  internet that was 3-4cm different than any previous bike. I would be
  happy to meet someone who wanted to see a bike, and I bet there are
  others on the east coast who would be interested as well.  Who knows,
  we may even get a Riv bike ride together like our more fortunate
  (weather wise) west coast brethren!
