I know this is off topic but I don't care! Congratulations to Rivendell for their choice of name for a 650B bike.... Saluki. I had a couple of decades of keeping Salukis and they were the perfect hound. They went everywhere with me, loved the back of my twenties Chrysler, went into every pub I drank in, never got me thrown out of eating places. went like the wind, were game for anything, had feet that would cope with any kind of going except snow which balled up and froze between their toes. What a name for a bicycle. It will have to be graceful, sure-footed and well bred to be worthy of the name. I suppose an ability to catch and kill hares is out of the question.
