Mentioning Neil Peart, he has written two very enjoyable touring books, The Masked Rider, about a bicycle tour in West Africa, and The Ghost Rider, about a solo motorcycle tour in western North America: Alaska, Canada, USA and Mexico. Steve Campeche, Mexico On Sun, Feb 12, 2017 at 7:56 AM

The Harley folks were indeed very personable. One is a singer in a local band and saw the "RUSH" jersey one of our group had on. They spent several minutes trying to beat each other at a pick-up game of Rush trivia. "What song was written for Neil Peart to try out for the band on?" and etc.

Thanks Ian. The jersey is a wool blend MTB jersey with a single zipper rear pocket, by Canari. It is very comfortable. I'm sure I found it on Ebay. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group. To unsubscribe from this group and stop

Thanks Patrick. The bike is a nice old Tange tubed Japanese crit racer for pre-conglomerate Nashbar that has been converted to 650B. After a respray, it got an "Old Man Peterson's Ferrous Velocipedes" seat tube decal, and so also the name, "Ferrous Beuller." -- You received this message

Nice bike (yours; I don't care for Harleys, not that I've ridden anything except a little Vespa), and great photo! I like to tell motorcyclists that motorcycles are for youngsters; we old guys ride bicycles. On Sat, Feb 11, 2017 at 5:13 PM, Fullylugged wrote: > I

I wasn't on a Riv today, although this bike has some Silver brand bits, and the current setup is definitely riv inspired. At a store stop, another bike group pulled in, and they too were fans of steel bikes. https://flic.kr/p/QNzYaH -- You received this message because you are subscribed to
