Jim,
Looks like I'll have to add some studs to my tire collection. The thing about
Boulder is the snow/ice usually melts within a day or two, so that makes for a
lot of wrestling tires on and off.
Glad to see you're enjoying Marin!

Advice - don't take shelter under a tree. Lightening strikes trees
frequently. That's how golfers get kill on a golf course. It happens.

I ended up with a new Eddie Bauer First Ascent messenger bag. It looks
great and seems to be comfortable though I haven't ridden with it yet (work
and the great midwest blizzard).
My TimBuk2 bag was still functional, but all of the velcro was loosing its
grip. I cant wait to give the EB a try.
I didn't see any lightning this time, but I'll keep that in mind. Luckily I
have no fear of death, which is kinda fun.

I guess I wouldn't bother with studs for recreational riding if I lived in
Boulder. If, on the other hand, I was riding for transportation, and couldn't
pick and choose weather conditions, then the studs make more sense.

Congratulations! 700C or 650B? Both are just perfect for the respective
sizes.
Anyway, yes, put Frame Saver on. There's no reason not to use it!

I've had great luck with the large sackville. Several tours and all day rains
with nothing getting wet And or even in the bag. I still line it with a
trash bag, and recommend that, just haven't needed the extra protection under
some severe weather conditions.

Hey All,
My first MTB was a mid 80s lugged stumpy (the orange one). I rode it for
over twenty years before a frame builder friend told me that the stress
waves in the top and down tube were serious enough that I should retire the
frame. So I did, and bought a Ritchey (which my wife uses as her u

It looks like I'll be in San Diego for a week, and I am hoping to get in a
few 2-3 hour rides. Can someone suggest some routes? Feel free to contact

In my experience, the saddlesack bags (medium and large) will keep your
gear dry. The canvas is fairly thick and tightly woven, and the main flap
provides lots of coverage, almost like a raincape over your stuff.

I doubt you'll have to worry about chasing bottom bracket threads.
Framesaver is good
Check the derailiuer hanger .. Not a must but can sabe time later
Then have a blast .. I usually hang the bike from an old seat post till I've
put the first scratch on it then go. Ack to clamping top tube seat
Noah, I'd be interested in seeing what you have. I'm also open to a boxy bag.

You don't have to chase the threads. RBW does this before the frame leaves

The Scottish fabric is the tightest and most light-and-airproof of any I've
seen or used, and as far as I know is not available in the US. Carradice,
I think, gets its fabric from the same Scottish maker. Or at least *has*.
The waterproofness is one thing, and a big one, but as KS says and does,
I've never had water enter the main compartment of my large Saddlesack,
which has seen some rainy multi-day tours in Va./W. Va./ MD.. Nonetheless,
I use trash compactor bags or mega-size Ziplocks as liners.

If you were wondering if this happened:

It did. Ended up getting to the wrong place after missing the Bart train.
Started at North Berkeley patching up a flat. Good amount of climbing. Mud
wasn't sticking and the sun came out. Greg, Gordon and I ended at Sibley

You might want to do some gorgeous road miles by getting on Panoramic
