First I would like to say thank you to everyone for the great tips and

A 57 TT would be too long for me, I think. Most of the Geometry Rivendell
charts that match my PBH say 55.5 or 54.

Manny,
Beautiful simple wisdom, thank you.
I have already done some epic rides this warm season including Ride the
Rockies up and down high lovely passes, miles of dirt roads and bike
trails, lovely canyons. It was great. Still my favorite ride of the year so
far was with my granddaughter
Fyi, I sent an email to the owner because to my eye that TT measurement
didn't match the 57 cm listed. He quickly responded that it was actually
55 c-c and apologized. Still a 54 c-c seatube.
Slightly big for me but a decent deal for someone else depending on how
high the price goes.

You oculd title that as a ride for the unracer to go with one of the
themes in Just Ride. My wife I have a favorite loop that's in the
low 20ish miles. We allow 3 hours so we can stop at several vista
points, etc. Quality is more interesting than quantity.
As always, great pix that convey the

I want to learn more about Riv's chambray shirt. Does anyone have anymore

Thanks.

I've picked up a few pairs of Ibex Duo shorts on Ebay and used a thread

Boure Bicycle Clothing - it's been quite a few years since I last purchased shorts from them but the padding is very thin, exactly what you're describing. I might have the least expensive of their shorts offerings. They are also terrific on customer service and very responsive on the phone.
If you can't track down a Slickersack, a medium Saddlesack is about the
right size and shape. See the difference

Saddlesack is a bit more narrow so fits between drops better.

Such serendipity!
Not wanting to spoil the surprise, I never looked at the artist's site.
When the poster arrived, the style looked familiar, so I looked more
closely at a poster my wife has had since before our marriage--a poster of
Cafe Chez Panisse from the same artist. Needless to say it
Looks good erik. Was planning a similar trip with a buddy of mine. You have

That's been my usual setup. My basket abraded holes in a thick canvas

I picked these up a while ago for a project that didn't work out. Brand new
in box ( well I did unwrap plastic bag parts are in) includes front and
rear and all hardware.
Cool design allows brake pad to swing clear of fork blade so you can stuff
big tires in. These are the Pewter gray model.
