rivendell's grant petersen wrote a book,
with a nice excerpt in the atlantic! who knew. good for him, and i
hope it finds some new readers who might not be down with the grant and
rivendell and his history.
if i wrote a book about rivendell, it would be called this is not an upgraded rb-1 and why the hell isn't it, exactly??
i'm sure the roadeo is very nice, but it is about a billion lightyears
from what i would like to see in a sweet, steel production road racing
style frame. all-arounder style frames mean nothing to me, but a nice
rivendell frame with the 1992 rb-1 geometry would already be living with
me.
considering the nuclear weapons, the abrupt
change of state
in palestine/israel will probably be one of the most dangerous
political and diplomatic crisises anywhere in the world. it is an
unstable, unsustainable situation every day, buoyed only by the massive
influx of american cash and the incredibly backward leadership in the
surrounding nations, so when the collapse happens much will depend on
the humanitarian wisdom of vast numbers of abused and oppressed people
and the wisdom of western diplomacy that has been ineffectual for many
generations. if it gets fucked up, it could be as bad as anything
that's happened in a hundred years.
