Anyone know of a lightweight/microweight long sleeve or three quarter
sleeve loose fitting wool shirt?
I'm basically looking for more arm coverage (sun protection) but less
weight and more airflow for these hot southern summers.
I have a seersucker that i'll wear with a short sleeve wool base
I got my Nigel Smythe Big Loafer from Rivendell this week so I thought
I'd take the required pics and post'em up.
Don't think I posted it before but I also have one of the first rando
bags from Acorn Bags.
I also swapped out my traditional quill stem for a polished Velo
Orange traditional 6
Thanks, Seth.
The stem is flipped for more rise. Flipped back the other way and it's
almost level.

Looks awesome!
I second the need for fenders, but I would recommend the SKS fenders
that riv sells over everything else.
I started with those, then tried honjo and berthoud metal fenders and
ended up back with the sks. They don't cover quite as much but they
cover enough and they are more
flop than the sks.

I find the Berthouds on my HH are a lot less floppy that the SKS on my
other bikes, and look nicer too especially with the Waterford blue. Can't go
wrong either way though.
