I had 3 of them

1. 2004 59cm 
Romulus<http://www.flickr.com/photos/franklyn/sets/72157600050554321/>, 
later repainted a darker blue. I thought it was too big for me, but later 
realized that it was the perfect size
2. 2004 57cm 
Romulus<http://www.flickr.com/photos/franklyn/sets/72157603538257284/>. 
I acquired it after I thought the 59cm was too big. While it worked, the 
59cm worked better. I sold it to fund my Ebisu.
3. 2007? 59cm 
Bleriot<http://www.flickr.com/photos/franklyn/sets/72157625675713501/>. 
I got it in late 2010 to replace my Rawland Sogn. I liked the bike, but it 
wasn't very good as a front loader, and I had at this point acquired a 
preference for front geometry that suits front load. I sold it to a friend 
of a friend.

I currently don't have a Riv, but have a 80's 
Sequoia<http://www.flickr.com/photos/franklyn/sets/72157627342403464/>that many 
said inspired the design of perhaps the Rambouillet/Romulus. The 
Sequoia has slightly lighter tubings, though. I converted it to 650b and 
replaced the fork for one with lower trail. 

If I were to buy a Riv again, it would probably be a proper tourer, like 
the Atlantis, though i really hope it will come in 650b, as that's the only 
wheel size I use now.
