Trek- so great, the whole story!! And the green is perfect, and the cork bars.
I am still not seeing any pix of the whole bike- just a bit shot here and there- am I missing a whole bike picture somewhere??

I can't see the pedals in your pic very well, but are they these?

Now that I've discovered how well BMX pedals work for me, I need to get a pair of my own (so I can give the ones I'm using back to SKnot.)"If Americans want to live the American Dream, they should go to Denmark." - Richard Wilkinson

no reflector and open, "drilled" on side and back. I dunno about a Brooks for me. The Avocet is one of the saddles my butt likes. Chris says "phase two" should be some lovely hand-hammered fenders he carries.
I also need to figure out storage; under seat bag, handlebar bag. The Nigle Smythe bag I have on the commuter doesn't fit.
I know, isn't it? I'm hearing Disco in the background when I ride Originally Posted by rij73

Trek, what a wonderful story and what a beautiful bike!
I AM sorry i didn't do business with your LBS.
Those handlebars, how wide are they?
I also love the photograph... makes me want to get my paints out again!

She's a beauty! Has she got a name yet? I wondered, what with her tea green color and the bell, if maybe there was some item from the tea ceremony that had a name-like name. So I looked up tea ceremony words (a friend of Mom's teaches courses and has a web site). The whisk is called a chasen. What with her spokes, could she answer to the name of chasen?
Half-marathon over. Sabbatical year over. It's back to "sacking shirt and oat cakes" as they say here.
