Mike talks a good talk, but don't let him fool you, he's a pretty good guy. :-) Cheers, David On Sun, May 26, 2013 at 9:37 PM, Mike wrote: > One thing that's really weird about Portland is that in spite of being > surround by forest and having access to dirt roads, it's not like down > there

Re: [RBW] Riv Bikes Tackle The Mountains

One thing that's really weird about Portland is that in spite of being surround by forest and having access to dirt roads, it's not like down there where you have access to singletrack. If you want to singletrack here you gotta throw the bikes in the car and drive for an hour or so although onc

Re: [RBW] Riv Bikes Tackle The Mountains

Hey Mike, I figured I took it too literal. Yeah I can imagine working in an ER would make me want alone time too. I'm a fairly social person but at times human contact can wear me out especially as I age. Solo rides are wonderful because you don't have to compromise on the ride you desire. I like

Re: [RBW] Riv Bikes Tackle The Mountains

Mike, I like the Buddhist's notion of the middle path which Plato understood even earlier. I appreciate being on my bicycle out in nature alone in a meditative state of mind but can appreciate sharing it with nice humans. Like my Riv Brothers and Sisters. Perhaps I'm taking you're comment to

Re: [RBW] Riv Bikes Tackle The Mountains

Yes, that's exactly what they are. Cracked, hard and worn down, but I'm not getting rid of them until they're in tatters and absolutely unrideable! I know of no comparable replacement to what is for me the perfect off-road tire (and that fits my bike @42mm clearance). Soliciting recommendations!

That's really the best part. Not the beer necessarily, or even the trails. I can do either whenever I want. It was the good company that came out and enjoyed it today! Cheers, David On Sat, May 25, 2013 at 8:53 PM, Michael Williams wrote: > looks like a good one!I like the picture of the

[RBW] Riv Bikes Tackle The Mountains

You may think your Rivendell does good on the back roads, excels at city riding and really shines when you throw a little dirt into the mix. But did you know they can also be ridden on honest to goodness mountain singletrack? Yes, I'm here to tell you it's true! In fact, I would encourage you to ho
