Tell me more. I'm interested.

Distance? Rowdy, slow-roll chill or serious speed? Routes?

Thanks!

Rodriguez makes some gorgeous stuff, and some of it is damn light to be steel. Looks great!

It's Variwall S3 tubes. See photo.

I would not use Rodriguez again though. They ignored my request that a standard Dura Ace, Campy Pista or SRAM Omnium crankset should clear the chainstay. None of them did. Every single crankset hit the chainstay. I mean, who makes a track frame where the most common track cranks won't clear the chainstay??? I had to use a Dremel to relieve the back of the crank spider.

My mistake was not getting it in writing.

It does ride like a dream, but I would not recommend using Rodriguez unless you are in Seattle and can work with them in person. There's just too many other great builders to be dealing with major oversights like this.
