Awesome picts Manny! Thanks for sharing, I've often wondered why some cyclists go to the extreme, seeing those photos make me want to ride over the horizon and just keep on going! On Sunday, December 9, 2012 11:38:44 PM UTC-8, Manuel Acosta wrote: Got to tag along with some SF Randonndeurs,

I'm also an 82 cm PBH and I ride a 56 Ram, the fit is spot on. I paid 1200 through Craigslist for the full bike 3 years ago, it had a couple of good sized nicks and needed tires, it had about 3000 miles on it when I bought it. The grease was pretty shot and i ended up paying my lbs for an

Great times in the seattle area today, as thousands of cyclists looped Bainbridge Island in a 32-mile jaunt. I took the blue rambouillet on the 8:45am ferry, full fenders and baggins lil' joe bag expecting snow in the forecast. But it turned out to be sunny most of the way, low 40's for a high.
