Or, at any rate, fretting about fender color.

I bought 2 pr Longboards, one in basic SKS grey (they're British) for the
blue Ram, and one in pretty cream for the Riv commuter. Both are 700c X 45.

Well, I just lucked into a great score: 650B pr of 45 mm Berthouds, so I
have one pair too many of the SKS's.

Question: which will go better with the Ram Blue, the standard grey or the
cream? Any photos of either combination? My own opinion is the grey, but
I'm somewhat color blind.*

At any rate, I may have a pair of NIP SKS Longboards for sale in the near
future.

* I just had cataract surgery in my right eye. The results, thank the
Deity, are more than satisfactory. What amazed me is not the mere
improvement in visual accuracy -- the capacity to see detail at a distance;
it is the tremendous increase in the quantity and quality of light, so that
even with what had been my "good" eye, things appear yellow, as if in an
old, faded sepia photograph seen through a dusty glass cover. The
experience gives immediacy to the parable, "The eye is the light of the
body: if thine eye be whole, thy whole body will be filed with light" and
its intended analogical reference to the light of the "eye of the heart". I
say, it gave this analogical parable a very concrete reality. I plan to get
my other two eyes done too, God willing.

(My color vision is still sub-par.)

  * "Where you come from is gone, where you thought you were going to never
was there, and where you are is no good unless you can get away from it.
Where is there a place for you to be? No place.*
* "Nothing outside you can give you any place," he said. "You needn't to
look at the sky because it's not going to open up and show no place behind
it. You needn't to search for any hole in the ground to look through into
somewhere else. You can't go neither forwards nor backwards into your
daddy's time nor your children's if you have them. In yourself right now is
all the place you've got. If there was any Fall, look there, if there was
any Redemption, look there, and if you expect any Judgment, look there,
because they all three will have to be in your time and your body and where
in your time and your body can they be?*
* "Where in your time and your body has Jesus redeemed you?" he cried.
"Show me where because I don't see the place. If there was a place where
Jesus had redeemed you that would be the place for you to be, but which of
you can find it?”     -- *Flannery O'Connor,* Wise Blood  *
