That would be correct Kelly.
I ordered the bike in December 2015 and it was built in early 2016 and after eight years the Rohloff is still working well

Mike,
As you know from forum discussion, I have a new to me Rohloff. I've been poking around on the internet on this blustery spring day, looking at Rohloff stuff. I bought my bike as a demo bike that had sat in the shop for four years. But, as I look around at serial numbers and year of manufacture, it appears that my hub is actually a 2014-15! I'd like to know what shelf it sat on for all of those years.

https://thorncyclesforum.co.uk/index.php?topic=7767.0 - I found this thread - lo and behold, my hub 202,567 - would sit right next to yours in the list! I had to look twice at your name!

Even though it wasn't quite what you originally planned, it looks like you had a really good tour with lots of interesting history and people. I'm glad you and the bikes both held up to the rigors of the road, and it was only weather that gave you any trouble. I look forward to seeing where you are off to in Oct/Nov. Emily

Another great ride journal. Enjoy seeing the sights down there I wouldn't see otherwise. Smart of you to take advantage of that gambler's shuttle. And that paddle steamer tour was really interesting.

Thanks, Mary and Mike.

How nice that you were able to meet up with Emily and Don. Not sure I've ever seen a photo of Em not in her riding kit.

Enjoying following along.

I thought all those place names sounded familiar - from reading Emily's journals. And then there she was! Must have been a lovely evening.
Looks like you are having a fine ride.
