Bill, your post with introspection on perfecter-builds and the Clem was really lovely. I'm especially touched by the lines, "Those bikes [the Clems], I'm completely convinced, could make me completely happy, and that would be the first off-the-rack complete bike that could do that since I was 12. That's magic, to me. " And your thoughts about potential Atlantis riders and their perspectives on cost and rough riding are astute. I know that I'm more careful with my raffle-won Custom than I am with my Saluki than I am with my ProtoBleriot. AND I know when I picked up the custom, Grant made it clear that he expects me to ride it in the snow, etc. So I have ridden it in the snow, fretted, and then completely washed it after every snow ride. That doesn't happen to the proto.
The point: The Clem/clementine might just be the ultimate "Just Ride" Riv. thanks for your thoughtfulness -RCW -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
