[RBW] Need help with Romulus Decals

I bought the original proto Rom built by Nobilette a couple of years back. Its seat tube decal was a paper transfer that basically disintegrated. When I contacted Riv for decals, they sent me protovelo decals but no Rom decals. I hope they find some for you. Please let us know how you make

[RBW] Re: Roadinis could be arriving any day now?

Dave told me a while back that they could be in as early as October 6th. I'm sure we'd know if that had happened. I'm not getting a Roadini, but I've been watching the site for builds and frames because after the Roadinis are in, the Big Clem L's will be next! Jay On Sunday, October 15, 2017

Re: [RBW] Re: Whom to ask at Rivendell World Headquarters about specs for long-ago-built customs?

Thanks all, and I'm glad to hear that the fires, which per the news sound really terrible, haven't affected Walnut Creek. I'll call sometime next week. I figured there was some good reason for the silence; Riv has always been good about replying in the past. On Sun, Oct 15, 2017 at 5:46 PM,

There's no crisis mode with respect to the fires. The fires are all to the North of Walnut Creek. The air was exceedingly unhealthy for all of us but nothing about Rivendell operations is threatened by the fires. Yesterday (Saturday) was much better air quality and today (Sunday) was almost
