Elegant, simple, and capable, too! I really enjoyed how it rode on the dirt. Now, I'm thinking about trying it out as a camping bike together with a lightweight kit. I'm modeling this idea based on a gentleman I saw the last time I camped at Samuel P. Taylor park near Point Reyes (http://tinyurl.com/2fl8nfu). He appeared to be a grizzled bike camper riding a well-used Mercian with Honjos and SON hub + generator lights. All he had with him was a Carradice Camper LongFlap and a couple of water bottles. But from this, he set up a tent and bag (I couldn't tell where he had strapped these--possibly atop the Carradice), cooked a nice, hot meal, and opened a bottle of wine. I liked this approach and thought it'd be neat to try to pair this approach to a camping kit with the simple yet capable QB. In other words, I guess I've been reeled in, too. :) Lee -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
