That pot hole still looks to be completely covered in snow, Tim. I'm
surprised you could see it at all. Oh? Ahhh. I'm looking at the white of
the screen where a picture would be? Yes. I see that now. Grin.

Looks like it's only a couple of blocks from my office, so if you want me
to scope it out, drop me a line off-list.
Temps in the 40s in CT today. Good for a 73 mile ride. The 200k I had planned
on yesterday in DC was cancelled due to Thursday's heavy snow. My next opportu
is in two weeks, again in DC. My goodness the roads are in atrocious condition
out here. My Compass Stampede Pass tires did great, though.
You might want to keep that bike. It's got a decent tube set, good
geometry, your setup is good. With some Compass tires on 700C wheels it
might really impress you down the road. My wife has a mid-80s 620.
Just saying...

Based on what I've seen of your other bikes and builds, I'm looking forward to
your interpretation of the venerable Atlantis. I have a feeling it will be
special.

Second that! Our foray into record low temps here has produces potholes
more instantly than Carnation does breakfast. The roadway on my commute
changes in the 24 hours between my passing and is SCARY because of how it
effects the drivers, who seem more eager to avoid undercarriage damage than
Yeah. I wish there was a place for it here, but with 6 bikes and no garage,
it's time to start whittling down to 4 between the 2 of us. This one is just
too small for me and slightly too big for her.

It was pretty warm by the end of the ride, luckily all downhill at that
point!

perfectly willing to offer the same lessons over and over till I learn

Ok. Thanks for all the help. First decision is to sell the Atlantis and
keep the Hunqapillar. I'm definitely much more comfortable on the
Hunqapillar. Later on I'll decide on the Betty vs Homer. When I ride the
Homer today, things clicked.
Now to confirm the parts to be included or offered and
Keep them all problem solved. Bikes are fun.
