Happy Tuesday everybody!  The search continues for a 56 Bombadil.  If you have 
one, !I will buy it and send you a Valentine.  Be Mine

APPROVE!

I was out on a coffee run on my 56 MIT Atlantis when I read this.  
Acquiring bikes in the wintertime helps keep everybody warm, on several 
levels, and that's a fact.

Hey I'm in Brooklyn so you can check mine out when it arrives (although it
will likely be awhile as wheels need to be built etc.). I'd be interested
in trying out the Cheviot.

Actually seems to be a bigger Riv community here in  NYC metro than I
thought. Let's get a ride together in spring. Happy to host the group at my
house in Ditmas Park for post ride libations.

Jamison,

Where are you located?  I would not oppose letting someone test ride my 56 mit 
Atlantis if you were in my area.  Others might as well. 

Of course, we just got snow, so we would likely have to wait a few weeks. 

Just in case anyone misunderstands, it is not for sale.

Best regards,

Happy you scored multiple beams.  Way to cover your bases, I searched for a

Moved one back then; with another possibly on the move now that I added a 67cm
