Wow! I just looked at some of their ride routes and they look spectacular. I hope to get out and do some from time to time. Especially this fall. They will make great training rides for the centuries I hope to do, too. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups

As another plug for their rides, I went on a rather epic 53 miler with the G folks sometime in July. Highlights included countless beautiful country roads, a river swim stop, a ridiculously tough gravel climb that my legs and Sam could not conquer without the help of my feet making contact with

Just for the record, we do rides like this every Sunday night. Check our facebook page for details on em, but they’re a regular thing, and the folks who come do the rides are all on the same basic program: smart bikes, go slow, ride hard stuff, find cool roads. They just aren’t all Riv

Good time, good people. Nice to meet some of the folks from away. A Quickbeam was perhaps not the best choice for the terrain, but I did OK anyway. Someday I will go on a group ride and not get a flat. Couple of photos here: https://www.flickr.com/photos/14612032@N00/albums/72157672387444346

Actually they are Shimano shifters mates to IRD levers. I think Shimano makes the best friction shifter out there but you can use any shifters on these and they come in silver which genevalles don't. We keep plenty in stock in case anyone wants a pair. -- You received this message because

My guess would be Gevenall (http://gevenalle.com/product-category/shifters/). Really cool options they've come up with. I like the thought of using one of the Shimano Dyna-Sys derailleurs with a super wide 1 X 10/11. Not that I have any plans to set one up, but. Kurt Henry Lancaster, PA
