I'm posting my Craigslist ad selling four old bike frames here not
because I think you'll want to buy this crap, but because I think some here may find the insight into my psyche somewhat amusing. http://vancouver.en.craigslist.ca/bik/656507092.html -- Ryan Cousineau rcousine@gmail.com http://www.wiredcola.com/ "In other newsgroups, they killfile trolls."

Actually, that would make a pretty cool street/commuter/ fixed bike, for the hipster or poseur who dares. It's got all the "I don't give a damn what you think or if you stare" attitude, like a big tattoo or facial piercing, without the pain, expense, or Clinger-istic implications. Ryan, I think the ad pictures would improve if you hung the frame on a wall and took the shot in full side-on profile rather than angled down. Currently they look like an archeological expedition dug them up out of your yard (especially the Peugeot with its half buried chainwheel). Unless you did dig them up rather than take them out of climate controlled bike storage, and it's truth in advertising. Ben I admit to having a purple and yellow bike. |

I'll buy them all if you will cut the grass and then post pictures afterwards. Doing my part to beautify Vancouver. It's got some catching up to do. Bret |

I already have a very likely buyer for the pink-yellow-orange Ascente. Astoundingly, it really is the best bike of the bunch. > Ryan, I think the ad pictures would improve if you hung > the frame on a wall and took the shot in full side-on > profile rather than angled down.

The giant crab grass clump messing up my photos is there because it's between the pile of bikes and the herb garden, so my mower doesn't go in there. True story about the Peugeot: it's falling forward in that photo. In classic half-assed fashion, I didn't bother taking a second shot. > Ben > I admit to having a purple and yellow bike. There's a purple OCLV fork on my Pinarello. And thanks to corrosion, it appears that state of affairs is more or less permanent. -- Ryan Cousineau rcousine@gmail.com http://www.wiredcola.com/ "In other newsgroups, they killfile trolls."
