It's a difficult decision. My fendered Atlantis is a lot heavier and less sprightly than the Roadeo. I'm not a weight weenie, but the difference in total time would be one or two hours. That's considerable. "Chance of rain" is just the ambigous weather report that makes riding without fenders a possible choice, but possibly a bad one. I may bring both bikes to the start and decide when I get there. > My frequent strategy for riding brevets in non-home territory was to find > some local to shadow or follow especially when it got dark. I do want to ride with others of the same speed and hope I find them, but fortunately for me, the Pacific Coast north of Santa Cruz counts as home territory for me. Except the small section between Montara and Half Moon Bay, I've ridden the area many times. -- -- Anne Paulson My hovercraft is full of eels -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
