It was a wonderful evening! The food, the beautiful bikes, putting a face to all of the posters. The best news for me was hearing Grant say he was still working on designing a tandem.

Dang Eric! No slight intended on the SimpleOne! In fact, I was thinking of it and then remembered I'd forgotten the Foy, and in the process got the Foy in but forgot the SimpleOne. Is it old age or a hangover? No, no, I didn't drink that much... -RCW Oh and PS: Grant rode a Nice Ride (https://www.niceridemn.org/) bike and raved about the whole concept. Yep, the Twin Cities are bike- friendly. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners Bunch group.

[RBW] Re: Grant in Minneapolis was Most Excellent!
Here, Here! Thanks for a truly great event, Jim and Grant. Grant and his daughter are some of the nicest, most genuine people I've met – and good golly that man is FIT! I can't wait to read my new signed book. Jim's shop was (is) the perfect setting, filled with all the cool stuff that I've been drooling over on RivBike.com. Looking forward to riding with fellow plump-tire riders this weekend. On Friday, June 1, 2012 11:24:05 AM UTC-5, Liesl wrote: What a great evening at Hiawatha Cyclery.

Liesl, Not an issue. The bike was inside, and easy to pass over. We all were wandering around admiring the fine rides outside.
