What a cool story. Glad you met someone of like mind and that you had a lovely 
ride in which to get acquainted. How many of us want to be that guy in 
retirement?!

Great ride report, as a former native Pittsburgher, I enjoyed the photos.  
2 questions:
Where was the 1st photo taken on the  river at 1st light?   I would say the 
Mon at the old J Southside works, the bridge would be the Birmingham 
(successor to the 22nd St).
Emerald View Park on Mt Wash.  Wasn't this called Grandview Park, and the 
photo left side shows the observation deck with a funny circular concrete 
roof?  The photo shows the new jail directly across the river and the park 
south of the Liberty Tubes/Bridge.

Anyways, thanks for the memories.  Glad the guy from Seattle enjoyed 
Pittsburgh

I thought Rivendell sold these very "loops" for a while -- in fact, I'm
sure they sold the same thing or something very similar.

As is the bike as a whole. Nothing fashionable, all very workable,
obviously well thought out and well used. Nice! (Tho' I'd prefer an

I believe that was me :)  It must have been shortly before my front

of a RT ride from Conway to Bellingham and ended up waiting in Edison for 
my friends to come back for me. The thought of the last 25 miles in a 
ridiculous gear was jut too much to bear...

[RBW] Re: riv sighting.

2013-01-20 Thread Evan
I, too, spotted a Riv the other day. I was walking along Market Street in 
downtown SF and spotted a woman, about 65 years old, riding a burnt orange 
Rambouillet, complete with flower-printed panniers. She stopped at a light 
up ahead of me, so I ran to catch up, stepped into the crosswalk near her, 
and told her I loved her bike. She said, Me, too! It's one of  my favorite 
things. Then the light changed and she rode off into the west.  I was 
almost as inspired by her as I was by Jay's Rivideo.  Terrific video!

And thanks, all of you, for your kind comments about Jay's Rivideo.  You

2012-07-16 Thread Kieran J
You see the odd one here in Toronto. I've seen a couple of Quickbeams
and a Roadeo.

I was in line at a LBS and the guy in front of me had a QB, and was
paying for some service done on it. He told the counter person and a
couple of bystanders admiring his ride that it was, without a doubt,
the best thing he had ever bought in his life.

 I have only seen two Riv's in my short life -- one orange AHH frame from

 Yesterday I saw a couple cruising on a Betty Foy and an Atlantis. I wish I
 could have stopped and gabbed, but a friendly Nice Bike! shouted out my
 window was all I could muster.

 Maybe someday I'll actually get to touch and ride one!
