John, I see fenders happening in a little. I agree the bike would look better with them. The past few rides, dirt is accumulating and I know fenders would block the dirt. I have to dig up my patience and a few hours to put them on. I got the hang of building up bikes and did not create any

Alex, Any word from Christine? I checked the gofundme page just now; not sure if the fact it shows a balance of $2256 reflects her not being successful in pulling out the $$ or not. Tom -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.

Finally reached my goal of 5,000 miles for the year this morning. Probably will not achieve subsidiary goal of 100/wk average. Will shoot for the same in 2019. Also had less year specific goals that I achieved in 2018 - 1) Do another unsupported tour to see if I was still up for it and, 2) Do

Thank you Bill for posting and providing inspiration. Because of your ride reports, I've set a goal for 2019 to do a 200K. I completed a few metric centuries and a full century this year, so I'm going to step it up a notch to go beyond the 100 miler in one day. I'll have to start looking for one

I’ve got the beginning of an R12 going. I missed the December San Francisco Randonneurs event and made up for it yesterday with a solo 200k Permanent. I had done the route once before in 2011. It’s an odd route, called “Tour of OC Bike Paths”. It’s a big diamond shaped route around south Orange

Beautiful bike! One question. Are you getting flex with the Towel rack and delux stem combo? I had to pull my set up off of an Atlantis recently because I was feeling nervous about how much flex I was getting from a technomic. I bought a cro-mo Nitto short stem (UI-71?) from Japan but it was wo
