Joe: My beloved San Marcos appears to be the same blue (which is stunning) so I can't argue with the choice and the savings. However, I am a bit sad not to see a candy apple and cream Cheviot. I will put it on my wish list for myself if I win the lottery :) I look forward to seeing the pictures.

Joe, I have to say keeping it blue and spending the savings on nice parts seems to me an excellent choice. Good decision.

When I got there, there was a Betty Foy in the stand that Mark was refreshing for a neighbor. He was shellacking the twine on the kickstand, which is as Rivendell as it gets. I wish I'd thought to take that picture! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.

Joe, I couldn't agree more regarding the Riv Folk. I always enjoy the conversation no matter who picks up the phone. I envy your proximity to Riv HQ. In spite of being roughly 3,000 miles away a visit is most definitely on my to-do list. Congrats on the new Cheviot. I look forward to seeing pics.

Alas the red was not to be. After some consultation with Will about how dang good the blue looks - it's miles more impressive than pics on the site reveal - I decided to spend the paint money on shiney new silver bits. As soon as my wheels show up I'll get it all built up and show it off. It's so pretty! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.

Right on Joe. I made it to HQ this past summer and it was fantastic. I was a bit star struck myself standing there talking to Grant about baseball and life. That was a Friday, when I firs t got into town. When I came back on Saturday to take one of their bikes for a ride at Shell Ridge, it ended up that the only Appaloosa in my size happened to be Grants, so he gave me his bike, grabbed another, and off we went. Oh, another highlight was a beer and a ride with a Patrick Moore in ABQ! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.

It is indeed a unique company, more so these days. I'm on the other side of the country, but I confess to ordering by phone vs. website over the years, just for the always pleasant interaction with whoever happens to take my order. Is this not the candy apple red Chev chariut? No sneak pics?!
