Marty's poster had a bad photo of my ATB, so I decided it was time to do a better set. Results are here:

Not exactly a white christmas in southeast Wisconsin this year.

No snow this year in PA either Ted. The poster is nearing completion, and your great photo will look amazing nestled among the other fine Rivendell models of Christmas past. Should have evertything together the second week of January.
 
Cheers to everyone!

Beautiful! Maybe I missed this before, but which frame is that? Looks a lot like my Saluki.

Nice bar wrap! I've got to try that....

Check out the early lugs, and the original "speared" downtube decal. It's an early (and rare) Rivendell Mountain Bike.

A couple of weeks ago I saw one of these parks outside my building at
the University of Virginia. It was pouring rain, I had no camera, and
needed to get going so I only stopped to drool for a moment . But it
was a beautiful bike. Same color. No model name painted anywhere,
same lovely head badge. Not knowing a ton about older models I had no
idea what it was model. Man, it was a cool bike and fabulous
condition. Anyone on the list?

Happy new year

I must admit this appeals to me in a way the more recent (I would say Mannerist) multiple top tube frames designed for the same purpose do not.

Guess that's what led me to the rSogn.
