Congrats Liesl!  Can't wait to see what you come up with. 

It was fun to fantasize about the possibilities if I had won, but now back to focusing on refining my current rides.

Yeah.  I was not in the contest but certainly cannot think of a better person to win.  It will be fun to see the finished product.

RCW posted a little while back about her admiration of a pair of Wilbury/Glorius lugs.  Maybe that seed will take root.....

That's super! We're all looking forward to hearing your plans, seeing some images a bit further on, and, of course, getting that first ride report. Good luck!

Congrats Liesl!

And thanks Grant for a great (and generous) contest that made crawling out of the holidays back into the work world something to look forward to. I had more fun thinking about winning the raffle than about any other contest I've entered and not won!

Congratulations Liesl!


Hope they do it again next year. It was fun just reading about
people's ideas. Got that 650b Legolas rolling around in my brain,
that's for sure.

Rick.

Thanks everyone; I'm overwhelmed. Got the totally surprise call from Dave just as I was heading out for a bike ride on my Friday -- which I'm still on. Will write a proper report when I'm back at a proper keyboard instead of an iPhone.

Awesome...I remember your story about catching and shaming a would-be bike thief. Can't think of a more  worthy recipient of a Rivendell custom!. I'm waiting to see what you and Grant come up with...you'll love it.  Congratulations again
