I've had good luck with shoe covers as well. I have some Pearl Izumi
stretchy ones that fit fine over my Five-Tens. They make a difference on
colder days.
Happy riding

A cool weather ride can be wonderful if you can stay warm in the fingers
and toes. I have found shoe covers effective over cycling shoes. In colder
weather, thick socks inside hiking boots. In really cold weather, plastic
bread bags between the boot and sock - this can lead to sweaty feet if not
That's awful! Did they get the kids?Some way to get a good story! I'm
glad you weren't hurt worse.

Inspired by the wonderful cold weather rides and pics recently (and others,
too, on Instagram), I decided I should not stop riding just because the
temperature is below 60*. Yes, you read that right. Pre-Riv, when the
weather got below 60*, I’d stop riding because it was “too cold.”

Hello All. Looking for a little expertise / advice on my Riv. I was in a

Ed--I don't think you overlooked them. I think Riv got in a bunch,
advertised it in the newsletter, and sold out. I got a pair to eventually
put on my Hubbuhubbuh, because the fenders on that one should come up
closer to the frame, but can't clear the v-brake cable. However, while I do

I think the focus of conjecture should be the number of logistic links that
exist in each subcomponent of a complete bicycle. It's not enough to point
out the inability of lesser priced parts like chains and derailleurs to
"eat" the shipping cost increases but to look at the number of shipments
Patrick—
It is both.
Example: a lot of bike components are made in China, but they are having
blackout problems due to a coal spat with Australia.

Example: there is the global shipping container shortage
Yes, thanks again for getting me started with the frame!
With the weather lately, it's been seeing plenty of "elements."
I've also been very impressed with the Barlow Pass tires. I'm not entirely
sure how they'll deal with the quantities of glass on the roads around
here, but no flats in week 1
Here's some bad press for the
Fookers- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7BoEZWUh9Nw
This guy's pretty upset about them. I'm using the metal versions, they
don't look as cool as the Race Face pedals. I still love them, but I know I
shouldn't.

Yup, plus one on Spencer's experience. Every V.P. pedal I've had has
developed problems. I've only had two types, 1 set of Harriers, and 2 of
the 001s, all rubbish. I'm on to Fookers, which are overpinned as all heck,
but my feet aren't slipping or making unfunny noises and shaking anymore.

But I would assume that when you have a trained workforce (say people with
the skill to weld/braze bicycle frames) You have x amount of capacity in a
factory. You can't just magic more workers and a bigger factory because
demand has suddenly spiked. Financially it doesnt make sense to invest in
Hi iamkeith,
Two questions...
1. What brand/make and where did you get those rear brake cable hanger?
2. What specific model and size are your tires?
TIA
