Congratulations on your Appaloosa! My first Riv was one and I absolutely
loved the ride. This bike is made for adventures like yours, which I loved
reading about. I wish you many years of great adventures and thanks for the

Cool bike, great story - congrats. Question; the Roadeo is a custom bicycle frame, correct? As such, would it not be designed specifically for the rider - in this case you? If this is correct, why would it or any Roadeo be overbuilt? Unless of course you asked for it to be.Sent from my iPhoneOn Mar
