Rides we can get behind

This is Patrick's Kogswell 650b Randoneur bicycle.  Patrick uses a Shimano Nexus 8 speed hub and a dynamo hub on many of his long distance rides and events.  Patrick's blend of nice polished silver bits, a simple black frame and fenders and nice honey leather trim and seat and brown cotton bar wrap give his bike a really cohesive aestetic.
PhotobucketThis is Mike's Fixed Cross Check.  Though we built it for him originally, it looks little like it did when it left here.  This bike is set up for winter with fenders and it will likely run studded tires for the next couple of months.  Mike has reflective tape on the fenders and top tube for low light visibility.
PhotobucketHere is Andy on his work trike.  This is the machine that hauls Veggies all summer to Burlington area farmers' markets from the intervale.  Right now, Andy is using it to haul their farm velo to the shop for some winter work.  The farm velo is used for seeding and weeding.  The operator lays on their stomach and pedals the machine at slow speed allowing them to work the fields with minimal disturbance.  Andy of the Arethusa Collective Farm designed and built this machine himself.  Next summer I'll be sure to get a picture of it in action to blog!
