Taken in Hemet (Southern) California by Debbra Walker 2014

I was taking photos of a Red-tailed Hawk and unknowingly stood under a Raven’s nest. The Ravens went crazy and started attacking the fence post I was standing by while others were diving at me. They were NOT amused.

Classic Steel Framed Touring Bike.

SO Nice Too Hold, SO Comfortable!!! Its All In The Bars. These Thomson KFC Cyclocross Carbon Handlebars Match Rest Of Kit Perfectly And Look Fantastic. Feel Great Too..

I Never Was That Sure If They Would Look Right But It Has To Be Said Together This Combo Works Amazing On My Roberts Transcontinental Steel Retro Modern British Classic Looking Touring Bike. Best Bike Of The 6 I Own..

Finally Got One Since I First Set Eyes On One In The 80's.... Class. So Well Made. In The UK Too.

Its Been A Pleasurable Experience This Build.

I Hope You Like These Pictures?

logo notes

Nice Rear End. Just A Rack To Add At Some Point. Tubus Cargo Evo In Black. Not Sure It In Reality Will Ever Carry Very Much.

I was looking at spider webs on my rhodies when this stink bug popped out to see me. The next day I saw it had been trapped by one of the spiders!

I don't think this is a brown marmorated stink bug that farmers are becoming very concerned about:

Roberts Transcontinental Bike Frame Build in Ruby Red

A Quick Stop To Make A Couple Of Adjustments.

Takes A Few Hundred Miles To Get To Know What Needs Doing. Seat Post Was Half Inch Too High. The Stem Is Too Long, Easy To Sort But Pricey. A Shorter Thomson Elite X4 Stem Now In My Possesion (80mm x 10°) Now Perfect.. Saddle Needing Levelling Off Though.

PS with John

Need some more 3 x 8mm screws for the flaps; these are a little long.

Cockpit Ready - The Red Faceplate and Stem Look Really Good. If A Little Too Long For The Bike Frame And Me To Fit. The combo works well. Stem Handlebar And Coloured Faceplate.
