Deacon,

I have a PC and run Chrome and have experienced Google behaving poorly. 
Sorry I can't be more help.

Really a great attitude. Sorry about the job loss. I've always felt the 
universe has a better idea of what I need than I do. I've lost jobs and 
always been the better for it. I hope the same for you. Have fun into the 
next chapter. And yeah I'd rather ride my Riv too.

 Losing your job is one thing, but not being able to ride my Rivendell home

 The ride home was blissful. I love my bike. 

  

 P.S. They did give me a pretty good package, so not all is bad. Plus after 
 dealing with 3700 sex offenders against children in my career so far, I 
 might relish a change.

Google groups pages drag along a long string - you can keep scrolling down

been writing new code to match Chrome capabilities, and they're bogging 
down your ram.

Embrace the change and count yourself better for it. If you have a Riv to ride, 
you're already way ahead of the game as far as I can tell.

I shared this over at the boblist but thought some folks here would enjoy
perusing these photos.

Not all of these are my cup of tea but there are some serious gems tucked
into this batch of photos from the sale this weekend in Reno.  I thought
others might like to peruse.  I particularly like the gentlemanly roadster
types of bikes.

RE: [RBW] Summer Starts.

2014-06-13 Thread John Dilsaver
Addison, mid-June sure seems like a late end to the school year!  
I retired from teaching a year-ago-May.  Retirement is a much better break than 
summer.  While teaching, my summers (and I'm imagining most who have commented) 
were the time for teaching summer school, taking summer classes, attending 
workshops or helping run workshops.  And always in the back of one's mind was 
the ongoing analysis of how the previous year had gone, and what might be 
tweaked up a bit to change or improve the next time around, while trying to 
decompress from the school year.
My current activities (besides constant grass mowing) include, gardening, 
cycling, hand tool woodworking, blacksmithing,  helping my Mom after recent 
heart surgery (she's doing fine).  
Riv content: I had a nice 80 miles or so on the Riv yesterday, with some rain 
here in s.w. MO.  Fenders were nice.  Too warm for a rain shell, so you just 
enjoy the rain.  I wear a visor (cut up ball cap) under the helmet. It provides 
shade when sunny and keeps rain out of my eyes.  I notice I hardly drink any 
water when it's cool and raining.  Also, I'm usually nibbling on food out of 
the handlebar bag, but zip it closed during rain.  Yesterday's food; swiss 
cheese and pecans.  I'm trying to eat less carbs - including when riding - and 
I notice that on long rides I have much less tendency to bonk.

Chrome light and fast?  It's the biggest memory hog out there.  Maybe light
and fast if you have 1 tab open only.  But if you use a lot of tabs it's
worse at memory management than the other browsers.  Firefox is more
efficient when you've got a lot of tabs open.

That being said, I have 16GB of RAM and recently got a 750GB SSD and
nothing is slow anymore, so I am using Chrome and just taking the memory
hit in stride.

 Addison, mid-June sure seems like a late end to the school year!

 I retired from teaching a year-ago-May.  Retirement is a much better
 break than summer.  While teaching, my summers (and I'm imagining most who
 have commented) were the time for teaching summer school, taking summer
 classes, attending workshops or helping run workshops.  And always in the
 back of one's mind was the ongoing analysis of how the previous year had
 gone, and what might be tweaked up a bit to change or improve the next time
 around, while trying to decompress from the school year.

 My current activities (besides constant grass mowing) include, gardening,
 cycling, hand tool woodworking, blacksmithing,  helping my Mom after
 recent heart surgery (she's doing fine).

 Riv content: I had a nice 80 miles or so on the Riv yesterday, with some
 rain here in s.w. MO.  Fenders were nice.  Too warm for a rain shell, so
 you just enjoy the rain.  I wear a visor (cut up ball cap) under the
 helmet. It provides shade when sunny and keeps rain out of my eyes.  I
 notice I hardly drink any water when it's cool and raining.  Also, I'm
 usually nibbling on food out of the handlebar bag, but zip it closed during
 rain.  Yesterday's food; swiss cheese and pecans.  I'm trying to eat less
 carbs - including when riding - and I notice that on long rides I have much
 less tendency to bonk.

 Enjoying the endless summer . . .

Sorry to hear about this. Being let go is never pleasant, particularly if 
it's through no fault of your own , and it's a shock if you've had no prior 
warning. But, as you say , dealing with the worst of human nature on a 
daily basis is appalling and distressing. It also sucks that the bottom 
line trumps the welfare of the most vulnerable. I admire your resilience, 
though, and I couldn't  agree more that  bikes are a wonderful solace.  I

[RBW] Re: Tire lending library?

2014-06-13 Thread Andy.M
I'm with Doug, I think that this would warrant its own group to keep things 
cleaner.  We could start with donated tires that are half worn or better, 
not necessarily new, which gives the opportunity to see how the tires will 
look/last/fit in the long run.  I have been thinking about posting a wanted 
add for a set to see how large of a tire I could fit under a new frame, and 
this *library *would be perfect.  And I agree, one set at a time.  
Maybe we could throw in a couple of bucks to get the thing started, or a 
couple of bucks per transaction and shipping is shipping, so as long as 
the library stays intact, everyone pays for shipping on the way out.

 they will likely be folding beads, so shipping isn't the hassle it can be

 Anyone else interested in starting a sort of tire lending library for the 
 list? There are quite a few tires I've been curious to try (or to even see 
 if they'll fit) but the cost has prevented me from taking the risk. 

 I'm imagining a tire lending library would:
 - Start by letting all list members vote for the tires they'd want to see 
 in the library
 - Allow list members to join the library by purchasing or donating a set 
 of the tires on the 'most wanted' list. There may need to be some sort of 
 additional donation or buy-in given the range in tire prices.
 - Let a library member 'check out' a tire by paying its current holder 
 the price of shipping them. A library member could use the tires for a 
 reasonable amount of time (a week?) or until the tires are requested by 
 another member.
 - Keep track of who's got what on a private Google doc or a simple web 
 app. Maybe also let people share their reviews of a tire they've checked 
 out.

 If there is enough interest I'd be happy to organize and possibly build a 
 simple web app to power it if Google docs isn't sufficient. Thoughts?

collapsing very small and portable and easy to set up. If I was to fish

2014-06-13 Thread cyclotourist
Thanks for the reply! I didn't want you to think I was being snarky or
dismissive at all. Just a thought that the frame looks big in the pic based
on the lack of seatpost and height of bars. Especially as Hunqs have a
sloping top tube. But if your top tube length is the same as other bikes...
well, don't know what to say then!

 David,

 Thanks for the input and your statement is fair.  I think that part of it
 is the angle of the photo. Part of it is the 2.5cm of headset spacers and
 part of it is that the spacer stack leaves the already tall Bullmoose bars
 a bit too high.  It seems that all my complaining about low bars and
 short head tubes has come around and bitten me in the tail!

 On paper, the top tube length and other dimensions are like most other
 bikes I ride.  The difference with the Hunqapillar seems to be that the
 front end is much higher via a tall headtube and long steerer tube.   When
 I look at photos of Hunqpillars across the internet, some saddles are
 high...some are low some bars are jacked way up...some are not.

 I've thought about going for a 47cm Atlantis but the top tube would be
 really short for me to use with a sweeping handlebar.  I already have an
 Albatrossed bike and a hardtail mountain bike. Drops are out of the
 question.

 That's why I'm thinking I should trim this fork by about 15mm...maybe even
 20mm...  I do have a spare cro-mo Albatross lying around and...maybe I
 should try that first.  It's just that the Bullmoose is so nice on bumpy
 trails.

 Thanks for any input, everyone!
 Ginz

 Volunteers could meet and hash out details, or we can try to coordinate by

Sorry to hear about the sudden job loss, but to echo others comments, your 
grace and postive outlook are commendable.  I believe that with your attitude, 
you'll find yourself in a much more rewarding job in the near future.

[RBW] FS: NIB Dura Ace 32 Hole Rear Track hub

2014-06-13 Thread Bill Lindsay
As most of you have seen I've set up a 2x2 bike.  Double chainring with a 
double freewheel.  I kind of backed into the frameset here on the group, 
but the concept around the build was fully baked.  Enough so that I had 
pulled together a good chunk of the build kit.  Thing is, my concept was 
that I'd be building around a used Quickbeam or simpleOne.  So, one of the 
things I picked up was a NOS NIB Dura Ace rear track hub, 32 hole, low 
flange.  The frameset I ended up with has a 130mm rear end and came with 
wheels, so the likelihood that I will use this Dura Ace Rear hub anytime 
small is pretty slim.  

Anyway, I got it for $100 shipped, which I think was a good deal.  I'm 
offering it for $100 shipped, which I still think is a good deal.  The 
specific model is HB-7710.  Contact me off list if you want it, or have 
questions.  I could take pics, but it's really this:

Sorry about the loss of your job. I know how it is to lose a job. However

knowledge and experiences during my funemployment and was able to use it to 
land another job in an unrelated field. Good luck with another door

Dear Blakcloud,

My heart goes out to you in terms of what the future may hold.  But your 
attitude, but not being able to ride my Rivendell home is even worse!, 
inspires me. Thank you for that.  I cannot imagine what you had to do to 
accomplish what you did. Whatever good you could do with the people you 
worked with is acknowledged.  I don't know how you managed that and dealt 
with it, but it is sincerely appreciated.

Our dear friend Hugh has it right.  Things are put in our path for a 
reason.  And there is always the possibility it's going to be better.  That 
WILL happen.

Best regards,

Tom
