Rivendell is a bicycle company! A nice bicycle company, but still just a
bicycle company. I bet this sort of thing sets Grant's teeth on edge.

That said, I have to confess I felt a little bit awkward, and no doubt
bobbed and scraped a bit when talking with Grant 12 and 16 years ago about
customs, in part because I wanted to gently insist on my own way to someone
who knows much more about bikes than I do. Still, it's the same sort of
thing, and I suppose I set Grant's teeth on edge.

(The upshot of getting my own way, mostly, was that I missed out on a
couple of details that would have made my customs even better, but there
you go.)

But I am much older and wiser now.
