Cecily - the fact was since I had the Bleriot ( I had just built it up ) I was not even thinking of another Rivendell at the time but it has become a habit of checking Craigslist for the possibility of finding something worthwhile in a vintage touring or road bike, but when I saw the Romulus and had some extra money just could not pass it up given it was my size. There are enough people looking for something to flip that you almost have to be looking all the time to find a good deal. I really did not think I had a chance but the owner was moving so that might have helped. Hope you find something - I would even go to Seattle if the right bike was for sale. If I was not semi retired it would be almost impossible to have the time to do it as well.
