If, like me (a very simple minded fellow who has been a "serious" cyclist for a 
far shorter time than Steve, Bill and Patrick, to name just a few), found your 
head spinning with the dizzying array of sizes like, 559, 584, 622, 700c, and 
650b, here is a link:

Specifically Patrick's first post threw me a little. Of course all the sizes 
are probably second nature to many of you but in spite of my book-learnin' I 
remain fairly obtuse. 

Oh, and to remain OT, I rode an old (late 80s or early 90s) 26" Specialized 
Rockhopper (maybe Stumpjumper?) and  I was able to navigate single track better 
than on my 700c Hunq (with albeit very little time on the Hunq). And I now have 
a custom 650bx42 MAP rando bike, again with not enough miles and the jury still 
out. I love the ride and handling of my 700x38 Homer (ridden at PBP 2015). 

Great thread.
