Giving in
My regression into a less technical, simpler bicycle is by now well documented. I've spent the last several months investigating a world that I thought was long ago relegated to the annals of bicycle history. Gladly, I found that was hardly the case.
I give credit where credit is due. Grant Peterson has kept the fire of simple, enjoyable, comfortable bikes burning brightly....if you knew where to look.
I had thought about designing a bike I could sell at my store. A "country bike" that you could ride nearly anywhere. I came to realize that what I was trying to imagine had already been done.
I broke down and ordered my own Rivendell A. Homer Hilsen. Story and pics to follow.
Yesterday was 2 Wheels, 1 City; an event put on by The Indy Cog. It was a great time, and I look forward to participating for as long as they will have me. There is a vibrant bike culture brewing in Indianapolis. It's exciting to see so many people excited about bikes.
The sun is finally starting to come out on a more regular basis. I hope you are making the time to get out and ride your bikes.
Ride on!
