Under additional categories of interest, I suggest Racks'n'Sacks.  Rackage
and luggage seem to get a fair amount of attention and interest, and cost
serious money.  While Riv, VO, etc., all sell stuff, when I try to compare
items it's a bit difficult.  Having experienced users comment on the pros
and cons of ease of installation, fit to a particular bike, luggage user
friendliness, etc, would be useful.  Links to:

Acorn
Carradice
Orlieb
Bertroud
Riv (Sackville)
VO
Maybe some of the more obscure sources?  Zugster, ?? et al??

Somewhere I remember stumbling onto a photo site devoted to racks and
luggage that had good visuals about how stuff looked in the bike.

Subject: [RBW] Online Rivendell-ish Resources


Hey All,

I would like a little help putting together a little online guide.
This guide will highlight some of the best Internet resources
available to cyclists interested in Rivendells, Waterfords, classic
lugged steel bikes, etc.  It is aimed more at the recreational (like
randoneurs and touring) rather than competitive cyclist.

Here is a quick start to the list, mainly based on where I spend my
time online:

* Online Specialty Retailers:
-- Rivendell Bicycle Works: www.rivbike.com
-- Velo Orange: www.velo-orange.com
-- Harris Cyclery: www.sheldonbrown.com/harris
-- Renaissance Bicycles: www.RenaissanceBicycles.com (yes, I am
biased)
-- more ...

* Online Communities:
-- RBW Owners Bunch: http://groups.google.com/group/rbw-owners-bunch
-- Cyclofiend's Bicycle Photo Gallery: www.cyclofiend.com
-- more ...

* Online Information and Resources:
-- Sheldon Brown's Technical Bicycle Information: www.sheldonbrown.com
-- Classic Rendezvous:  www.classicrendezvous.com
-- Adventure Cycling Association: www.adventurecycling.org
-- ? EcoVelo: ecovelo.info
-- more ...

* More Categories ...

This is not meant to be an exhaustive compilation, but more of a "Best
Of" list.  I envisioned a handful of entries under each category.
Please feel free to comment and contribute ... Where do you go for
your daily dose of Bike Love?

Thanks,

Bryan
