Very happy new owner getting outfitted for trip from SF to Inverness
in Marin this weekend. The color was a deep blue with a touch of
green. The bike looked great! Should have snapped a picture but maybe
someone at RBW HQ did?

Always a great visit. Offers to share lunch and lots of great bikes.
Got the headset spacers I need to keep moving on the Heron Wayfarer
rebirth - thanks Mark!

Mmmmm...sounds fine!

I'll keep an eye out for them this weekend on the roads.

I am in Burlington.  I don't think I'll have my Sam by the time you are here, should be the week after.

oh wait!

just re-read the original post.  that isn't mine, although mine is the same thing (dark dark blue paint job).  thought I read that OP was getting outfitted.  Either way, i am happy my Sam is there and getting built tomorrow :-)

What did they call the color? Was thinking about a Betty Foy for the
SO but she is more partial to green than blue.
