It had more of the sprawling adventure of Zodiac, but with the ensuing years, his writing has become that much more enjoyable. - J -- Jim Edgar [email protected] Cyclofiend Bicycle Photo Galleries - http://www.cyclofiend.com Current Classics - Cross Bikes Singlespeed - Working Bikes The Gallery needs your photos!

Re: [RBW] Re: Book tour and Midwest RBW Rally update
Is the itinerary final yet? Is he coming to ABQ, NM? Why not??? Regarding books: how is Rework if anyone has read it? Perhaps I should just order since they promise 3X my money back if I don't like it. Must order Epidemic, Just Ride and BS. Perhaps Unfolding, too. Bought WWGF on Kindle already (but it doesn't convince wholly me tho' it has some convincing material). Jim: is that axle assembly for Surly hubs available yet?
