I just come here to remind me that I suck at building bikes.
Has any RRB-head here ever been intimidated, criticized, or put down by someone riding a bike who you met riding a bike? Nuff said...
I agree. The owner of one lbs here literally hates me because I chop and weld things. If it isn't a $2000 (insert name brand here) he doesn't care for it. I hosted a bicycle show in my town for 3 years straight and personally extended an invitation to him every year. He never showed. I see him at least once a week riding and he just shakes his head, as though a 1934 bicycle is some abomination. His Cannondales and Treks wouldn't be here without it.That's how you know someone loves the money more than the history or the principle. I suppose there's a bias there, us rat guys rarely need to spend money at the lbs. But a friend of mine has a modern bike shop/vintage bike museum, here in town. I've never purchased a single thing from him, and he doesn't seem to mind.yes, but they weren't on a cool bike.
Fakeness is not a real word, which makes it all the more useful...the term serves as an example of itself. Common usage/social linguistics will pretty much guarantee its adoption into the official lexicon, eventually.A small bit of things were said about the fakeness (is that a word?) of bikes like mine but no big deal. 98% cool people which is a fantastic ratio compared to other unrelated forums I frequent.
I've been lurking through RRB for a few years now and have to admit that I now have to sneek bikes in the garage cuz my wife say's "NO MORE BIKES" but do I listen... HAHAHA "NO".. This site has created a bike junkie in my house hold and YES I have a problem and I am an addict... There, it's all out in the open.. YOU PEOPLE HAPPY NOW.!!!
Hahahah.. Rite.!!!The first step is admitting that you are powerless over your addiction. =D
