Keven told me today that $3000 was the winning price, and he called it
a 'screaming deal'.  So I think he was a little disappointed.  But
this final price doesn't surprise me all that much.  I was hoping to
be surprised.  Maybe Riv should have offered more OOAK (one of a kind)
content:  give the bike a name, immortalize it in the Reader, open a
flickr group for dream bikes, or have Keven sign the bike.  Stuff that
none of us can buy at any price so the person who subjugates his/her
choices to Keven gets some extra stuff that is free yet priceless.
Maybe I'm naive in thinking this.  Maybe we all just want a deal,
regardless of what the original price is.
