I got one! 54 cm dark gold. I hopped on it right away and it looks like it's a good thing I did. From what I can tell, they sold out of 54's within 15 minutes or so. I saw a comment on the IG post that someone had one in their cart and it was sold by the time they tried to check out. This will

Class action prepaid order? Love it! This has been a fun thread. Suffice to say, I heard from Spencer at Riv and it does indeed appear that we may have reached the end of the mug line. They require a high minimum order and apparently took a long time to sell. In other words, be very, very

My Rivendell mug unfortunately met with its demise thanks to my klutzy ways. I had one in my cart to order but foolishly waited, hoping that some out of stock stuff would reappear to add to the order. Alas, not only did that not happen, but now the mugs are gone and removed from the site.

Second what Bob said about Gregory. I've known him for years and he is one of the most decent, genuine people I've ever met. Going into his shop was a joy, so much so that I often found an excuse to have work done on my bikes! I too moved away from Denver (in May), and my regret is that I
