So, my buddy Ben Sollee (acclaimed local musician) is leaving tomorrow on a bike tour around KY and TN, with the destination being the Bonnaroo Festival in TN where he will be performing. He'll be traveling with two companions, two Xtracycles, a big-ass cello, and loads of merch and camera gear.

One of his female companions on the trip has issues with her bike and URGENTLY needs to find a loaner for the trip that will fit her.

She's 5' 2", and would need to find a complete bike that is in good enough condition to make the 350 mile trip. A bike somewhere in the 47cm - 50cm range would be ideal. The bike doesn't need to be able to haul anything, but given the nature of the trip, likely anything EXCEPT a big, heavy cruiser probably would work. The bike would be taken good care of, and would be returned on the 14th of June.

Ben says that monetary compensation would definitely be offered to anyone who can help.

If you think you can help him at all, please feel free to contact him at:
bensollee@mac.com

or you can email me at brokebike@gmail.com, or call at 420-8599

Thanks folks!

I heard through the grape vine that the Ben Sollee Situation got taken care of in record time by good people.

So as not to waste a perfectly good thread...I kinda want this bike:

Yeah, I know, I'm weird.
