I recently gave it to a bike shop so they could fix it up and let some other poor sucker own it for 40 years. I still have one in the shed who's brand name I don't remember. I keep telling myself I'm going to ride it more but it's no Chimano. kwg For liberals and anarchists, power and control is opium, selling envy is the fastest and easiest way to get it. TRR.

The Poprad that followed me home might could have been up and down the Wiowash (sp?) trail a few times. The section by Johnny Depp's bench shows exactly how much mud a white bike can pick up after any kind of rain.
