they have some great shit on their craigslist

"So a friend of mine is trying to set me up with a cute indie girl, but he emphasized fixing bikes as one of my qualities. I mean, I can, I have before, but I do not do it a lot. If anyone has a vintage or busted street bike (or at least a frame) I'd be willing to pay up to $75 for it, or more depending on the brand."

I love this bike so much and recommend it to anyone who can do bar spins, that way you don't have to get a 650c front.


Wow, thanks! I've been wondering all this time what the hell I was going to do about that. Problem solved!

I was inspired to write my own haiku for this bad-boy:

bar spins 4-evah.

Oww ouch oh! My knees!
Oh, ouch ouch! Oh, pain! Pain! Holy
God, my wheels are hot


seriously? with all you've got to work with here, the only thing you can think of is stupid shit about knee pain? where did that even come from??? and why does the lycra set always pull that one out first - there's like fifteen better things to make fun of that kid for. it's like they can only say what they've already practiced: um, uh, oh yeah... welll.... YOUR MOM!

you guys did much better with a minimum of effort. i'm proud

Are those palm trees in the background? I have a sneaking suspicion that this picture was not taken in Louisville.

I wish someone would create a site - kinda like a mix between Fixed Gear Gallery and Fark, and maybe a little Bike Snob thrown in too... where a photo of a bike, or a person on a bike is submitted, and then everyone writes a haiku as a caption for that photo.
