Presaling the Jamboree shirts and patches was the only way they could have
happened. It was a big deal for me, and kind of a breakthrough as an artist.
I'd do it again, but I don't think my bike friends would be that stoked about

In the late '80s, my friend and I saw a sign at Lake San Cristobal, near

Philip, Desert Solitaire is one of my favorite books. I find myself
rereading the first few chapters every year. In Desert Solitaire Abbey
masterfully conveys the beauty and magic of an area I love and never get to
spend enough time. Abbey is an American original, though I don't agree with
Bruce, that post was why sarcasm on the internet never works (in the long
run it damages relationships Sarcasm transliterates putrefying thought and
that's what it does - it plants a thought that grows worse with time).
Hope you're not stinging too bad. Surly gets my vote over the mass market
I love that the fork crown has braze-on attachments on top. Something I've
wished for in my Hilsen many a time.. I also love the clearance, the
laid-backness, etc. I've got a 29er, but I haven't barely touched it since
getting my Riv a year and a half ago. I could definitely see myself
Good on ya Deacon!
And Andy could write copy for the Patagonia catalog - great description of
adventuring.

@ Pondero: Andy's got the spirit of the seemingly self effacing wimp. In
the face of these mountains, which can throw extremes and multiple
unexpecteds at any time, everyone is wimpy, puny, insignificant. The rock
and the wind and the wet rein at will. The wise know this and learn to
dance
Can someone explain the braze ons on top of the fork crown? I don't
remember seeing that anywhere else. Is it for attaching a Mark's Rack?

Dave, you hit my biggest worry right on target regarding delays. I was
involved in a custom watch project through another forum that began in 2008
I think. Those just started shipping last month. It was really unsettling
to see how much hate and negativity was unleashed by the delays, despite

Anyone using the Hub Area Rack to support Swift Industries front panniers?
Riv's HAR bags look good, but I'm already in the Swift ecosystem.
Thanks.

Elephant made me a very nice offer on a full custom frame as part of
that run, but ultimately I acquired a complete Redwood instead. It
was a lot more cost effective that way and I know that I will like my
new to me Redwood, because it's a Rivendell.

Jim B. You're absolutely right. The randos I have met, and I have met quite
a few, have been a great group of people.

Agreed about this list. IMO, if this list was the only market a business
had, they would have a small, but very dedicated and trustworthy pool of
customers. Although the ACW stuff has a decent following outside these
members, I consider this place my largest source of inspiration and
