Just got a new bike? Please use following code

Postby Hugo on Fri Sep 21, 2007 2:37 pm

Ok you guys, listen up. It's time to stop your inhumane and cruel torture of the Europeans and, to a lesser degree, of the Canadians. Whenever you guys get a new bike, please use the following code to avoid all the suffering and pain you are unknowingly inflicting on your cool-parts-and-frames-availability-chalenged coleagues:

FACT
"I just found this at the dump."
CODE
"I had to look for one of these for years!"

FACT
"I just bought this for 5 bucks."
CODE
"Man, I had to pay an arm and a leg for this."

FACT
"My mate/ neighbour/ inlaws/ postman just dropped this off at my place."
CODE
"Here's a pic I found on the net of a really cool bike."

FACT
"You're not going to believe what I just got for free..."
CODE
"I was bidding for this on eBay but it got way too expensive for me."

FACT
"So I just slapped on some parts real quick and this is how it turned out:"
CODE
"And if I had a ton of cool parts in my garage, this is a Photoshop rendition of how it would look:"

FACT
"So I looked inside the old guy's barn and..."
CODE
"I thoroughly enjoy the excitment of the European Soccer Leagues."

Please use the code. Don't be cruel. Thank you.

LOL so true! That's a great comment on old bike finds.

I tried the 'garage sale' circuit this summer. When they say 'some vintage bikes' it means some CCM granny bikes from the '70s.

Nothing one can build. :cry: (and they are always ladies bikes)

Why would I pay $90 bucks for one of those when I could fab' one up myself for $180 bucks...

I say we should get a bunch of us bike nuts here in Canada and invade the US at night to pillage some vintage cruisers from all those old barns. In and out commando style. Come on guys, let's give it to them like in 1812! :wink:

And with the Canadian dollar performing well these last few days, we can now actually afford to do this!
