Gorgeous frameset. Had I not just picked up a NOS Centurion from the 80s,
I’d be tempted. It doesn’t help that I live just across town… Best of luck
in selling it!

Sounds like a wonderful class. I wonder if you’ll start riding towards the

I’m going to look for a local class like that.

You bought my Rosco Road, and know how it fit(s). I also have had a 58

Great story, thank you Leah. Bike repair and maintenance is a forever
learning process, but I don’t want to mess with spoke tension, truing
wheels, or building wheels up from scratch. These are skills I deeply
admire in other folks.

I agree with Ted, clipless pedals are not useful for most of the riding I
do. That riding consists of commuting, trail riding, long and fast-ish road
rides, and both paved and off-road touring. The only time I still use
clipless pedals is for racing (which I do just a little of); platforms are

Ted, you should grab a bike and head over to Athens. We’re locals and
Lonely Planet sez Athens is most desirable cycling destination in USA. It’s
all true. Mile after mile of smooth blacktop, up and down through pine

Looking for a set or two of Paul's Touring cantis. Prefer silver but black
or purple would be OK too.

We would need to pick a date, plan a route. I'm not familiar with the area.

Looking for recommendations for a bike rack for a Prius for my fendered
Betty. Lots of tray mount racks seem to not be made for fenders. And the
hanging style would need a bar since my Betty is a step through. This
isn't for my car. I don't like to drive. Thanks in advance.

Hey Kim,
Daytime temps were around 25-27C (77-80F) A couple of days we had very
nice cloud cover which kept things cooler while climbing in the mountains;
very nice, indeed.
