The step through design will aid me when I am no longer able to comfortably ride my classic BRIDGESTONE bikes and my Harley. My pelvis is (actually) bolted together, and swinging my leg over the top tube will become harder as the years progress. Quality bikes are more expensive year to year, so purchasing now makes financial sense. I will ask for a few custom touches, have the bike assembled, tested, then shipped to me in Longview, Texas. I like the RBW Blue, the frame style is classic and very well made. The lugs are lovely, the fork is fantastic, the brakes are basic, and the braze-ons are bountiful. Accessorizing this build will include fenders, racks, lighting, a basket, a bell, and a kickstand. I have been researching the build parts this weekend. Rivendell has parts o'plenty to pick from, with a Chevoit - 2017 Pre-Sale, web specials, coupon codes, Rivendollars, and a LET'S HELP CHARLIE CUNNINGHAM two for one credit from Grant Petersen. More info here: *https://www.gofundme.com/w85tn3dg* My community is improving intersection lighting, creating bike paths along existing walking trails, and dedicated bike lanes on new roadways. The local bike shop has a regular group of cyclists who come together for easy rides. Each spring they set up a training program for new riders, building up skills and strength, promoting esprit de corps, and helping to prevent injuries. Some guys and gals compete in local area races of different types and competition levels. There is a large number of teens riding single track and gravel grinding, with great support from the local communities. Most all these people ride new style bikes, carbon and aluminium frames, multi-suspension mountain bikes, etc. Not my style, but at least they are riding. I am blessed to live here. ♥ More to come as the parts are selected and the frame arrives.
