That's just...

I don't have the words.:drool:

Even today, that bike will get you laid.

Little paint, it'll be good as new...

Purdy.

I am presently at war with various creaks my bike has lately developed. You cover a mechanical thing in mud once a week for 3-4 years it turns out it has an effect, who knew?

I was at REI yesterday for the big sale,and found myself looking at bikes. They were all nice. Much nicer than my trash picker's special I rode to work last week. So I looked past the big 20% off tag on the one that had caught my eye, and found the itty bitty price tag. I had to out my reading glasses on, the print was so small.

I knew a new bike would cost some money, but holy cow. I didn't see a single bike there for under a grand, and the one I had been eyeballing was $3k.

Imma tinker with my trash picker's special and just forget I saw those.

You can get good used bike stuff at pinkbike.com.

There is a lot of talk about the demise of the 26". Collecting parts for my clutch of mtn bikes.

That stash may double as a 401k plan. There's a guy in the Midwest who grabbed Jaguar wrecks/junks when their popularity waned, and made millions. Now he's doing SSRs.

People got tired of pedaling their ass around.

One guy's bike tool kit. I don't think he's taking that with him on the bike. :eyebrow:

He's got some old school tools in there. I wonder what the big safety pin and wire nuts are for on a bike?
