[RBW] Northern Thailand Riv ride: Every Monday, usually at 3:30 pm
Hi everyone, on the remote chance that there are any other ROB members hiding out in or visiting Northern Thailand, Kip and I would like to invite any of you to our weekly ride. Usually at 3:30 pm, leaving from Lanna International School on the Hang Dong road just south of the airport. But switching to longer morning rides when school is on break. If you are passing through and don't have a bike, let us know, we can probably hook you up if you are between 5' 3" and 6'. Check http://www.flickr.com/photos/25150...@n08/ for some pics. Cheers, and Merry Xmas, Gernot -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.

Thanks for sharing and the holiday wishes. Back at you. Pretty cool to see Rivs distinctive lugged beauty fitting in so well in such a distant location. Not going to happen this year, that is for sure. But let me tell you, here in Chicago that Thailand Riv Ride looks mighty good. Not terribly cold today, but boy, is it a sloppy mess. Snow, salt and freezing rain have combined to make the roads as rough as the unpaved paths you guys are riding on in the picture. We get all the work but none of the balmy weather rewards.

Gernot, Perhaps next summer. My wife will be visiting her family in the south (Rayong). You didn't mention what city - hopefully, Chaing Mai - my favorite city. I've often thought how nice it would be to ride in Northern Thailand. Bill Louisville, Ky In a message dated 12/24/2009 6:42:08 A.M.

Re: [RBW] A few more Quickbeam add-ons
I wrap electricians' tape strategically around my steel bottles, tho' this
does have the disadvantage that different cages require different locations.
It's pretty effective, if you don't mind tape beausage ("bow SAHJ").

[RBW] Re: 650B conversion questions
I have it on good authority (http://sheldonbrown.com/podcasts/ grantpetersen.mp3) that a 700x23c wheel + tire is roughly equivalent in diameter to a 650Bx38c wheel + tire. So if you can measure your BB drop with a "normal" wheelset, this should give a pretty good idea of the predicted BB drop. And from experience, I would leave the Canti mounts in place until you actually get the 650B rims test fitted to the bike ... just in case (for whatever unforeseen reason) Calipers don't work, you have a backup plan. ATMO, any bike is a good candidate for a "fun" conversion. Assuming this is not your primary bike, there is no harm in putting a worthwhile bike back into service and learning a few things along the way. And if it is your main ride, do it anyway.

[RBW] Re: Slightly OT: S24O in Adventure Cycling
This past summer I did two solo S24O's and one 8 day tour. The tour was probably the most enjoyable cycling experience of my life. I could have easily gone for another week or 5. Next year I don't think I'll be doing any touring but am hoping to do extended overnight camping trips riding 300k to 400k. Going the extended distance allows me to get deep into Gifford Pinchot National Forest and other areas outside of Portland. Should be fun. But man, if I could do another week long tour, or a month long tour...

[RBW] Re: Northern Thailand Riv ride: Every Monday, usually at 3:30 pm
Yes, we are in Chiang Mai City. Northern Thailand is indeed a cycling paradise. There are lots of little roads criss-crossing the landscape with very little car traffic. Most are paved, but plenty turn to dirt as they snake over a ridge, to return to tarmac on the far side. Perfect terrain for pass-hunting, and all-road riding. There are plenty of accomodations most everywhere for light touring, and both local pickup-truck "buses" (song taews) and real long-distance buses accommodate bikes readily for riding farther afield.

RE: [RBW] Reynolds 753 WAS: F.S. 56.5 Waterford built All Rounder $1200
By the time Riv specd 753 on their frames, it had been around for quite some time. 853 was just coming along around not long after. I would imagine that Reynolds had worked out things by then.

There were also issues with builders overheating the tubes. Used to be that Reynolds used to have builders pass a certification process before they could buy 753, consisting of a lug and couple of tubes which the builder would braze together and send to Reynolds for evaluation. They required the use of silver rather than brass to reduce the risk of overheating- except for Norman Taylor. Reynolds allowed him to use brass with 753 because of his skill with a torch. I suppose building 8500+ frames teaches you a thing or two. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.

[RBW] SoCal Christmas Afternoon Ride?
Hi Everyone, I always think of these things too late, but was curious if anyone in the SoCal area wanted to meet up in South Orange County for an afternoon ride on Christmas day. Nothing too long or too fast. I live in the Capistrano Beach area so starting in that area. Will provide after ride coffee and/or beer as long as I don't have massive turnout.

Re: [RBW] Re: Slightly OT: S24O in Adventure Cycling
I am also making one of my goals for 2010 to try to do at least an S240 and focus on lighter touring as described here. I've also had a rough end of the year regarding time on the bike, so the fitness has lapsed and the weight control plans are on shaky ground. I also plan on joining as many local Rivendell rides as I can, assuming that I won't get dropped too far behind... :-D Since I'm still quite heavy, my Bombadil is going to be my loaded touring bike for whatever I manage to pull off.

[RBW] Darning Socks
One of the great things about finding Rivendell has been finding a source for real wool clothing. I love real wool socks, but 100% wool doesn't wear as well as blends.

Csuka's eminently practical cycles were also very beautiful. With his death goes the last of the grand builders of randonneuses from the golden age of French constructeurs.
