Sounds like a good trip. I innocently visted Rivendell a few months ago while on vacation. Next thing I know, I ordered a Hunqapillar!

Jim: I have returned home (to NJ)... Had an awesome time in Sonoma County and brought back some of the positive spirit... We've got a Fall evening ride (off-road) planned this Saturday along the Delaware River in PA... to an English pub. We'll be returning in the dark (with lights, of course). I'm sure I'll have to share the Bombadil with my friends... they'll be asking to swap rides... (maybe I will need them to sign a disclaimer... I cannot be responsible for your wanting to sell your minivan and mid-life-crisis Harley for one of these bikesyaddy yadda) Peace, BB On Oct 13, 11:45 am, CycloFiend cyclofi...@earthlink.net wrote: on 10/12/10 8:22 PM, Montclair BobbyB at montclairbob...@gmail.com wrote: I had been looking forward to visiting RBWHQ for many weeks...

I went out there for two Irish straps and walked out with a new Brooks saddle. Before that I walked out with a Big Rack. Before that was something else. Strange thing is they didn't try to sell me any of it. -Ray On Oct 13, 6:19 am, Ginz theg...@gmail.com wrote: Sounds like a good trip.

I feel fortunate to have been a Rivendell customer since 1995. There have been a few shocks of On my gosh...I just spent $X on a bike/ frame. Sometimes there is a bit of sticker shock, but I have yet to regret spending money at Rivendell. I am happy to pay for their expertise...it's well worth it!
