Thanks to you too.
I enjoyed looking at the different components you used to create your work
of art.

Please bring this wonderful beast to Maine this summer.  I'll have to ride 
it like I stole it ;)
See you when you get here.  We'll plan another ride to Scratch Bakery or 
maybe Ohno Cafe.

Beautiful reimagining of your Hillborne, Tim.  Mine is set up similarly but 
I still love that blue and cream color scheme the best.  The bicycle looks 
so classy with the blue and tan accents and I've always loved the double 
tt.   Barlow Pass tires on a Sam are fantastic.  It feels like your gliding 
more than riding.

Enjoy those spring and summer rides.

John

Great bike and great photos too!  Love those brakes and fenders. This is 
why I wish to be tall enough for a double TT.
It's always wise to heed the Deacon.

Your Sam looks perfect and I’m glad you reimagined it!! I bet you get lots of 
looks and happy miles/smiles from it!

[RBW] Re: Sam Hillborne Reimagined

[Austin]

Beautiful build Tim--your post in a word is: Inspiring! 

Part of my affliction, (er "hobby") is reimagining how my bikes are 
configured. Having 3 bikes, I am constantly swapping out parts, testing & 
learning. riding, and standing back to admire what I've created. It helps 
to keep my n+1 desires in check and is very much in line with Patrick's 
sentiment. One of the things I like about Rivendell in general and the Sam 
in particular is how well these bikes take to my tinkering. And outside of 
truing a wheel or making frame repairs, I'm a self-sufficient bike mechanic 
as a result. I learn so much and get so many ideas reading post from people 
on this group.

If it ever stops raining here in Maryland today, I'm getting out on my 
identically-framed 2TT 62cm Sam. Until then, I'll be out in the garage...

Cheers,
Austin

Perfect!!  Well decided and certainly well done...  It is complete magic 
and a gift when a bike makes us smile and lets us use the word glorious! 
 Here's to many great rides and adventures this year and beyond.

Beautiful bike and build!
