Just to echo--that is seriously one of the most beautiful Rivs I've seen. I love the early Roads--they may not have a lot of functional elements that have come to characterize later Rivs--i.e. tire/fender clearance, rack/fender mounting, etc.--but proportionally and aesthetically, they just hit a sweet spot for me. Maybe one day I'll find one for myself.
I also love your eclectic mix of parts, which I'm sure rides great.
