Foo - If....

...you could borrow any other BF member's bike for a day, whose bike would it be and why?

I'd borrow operators bike.

I'd have to go w/ a custom made lugged steel frame from one of the SS/FG guys. Dunno which one though.

lowcel's dually... i dont think i need to explain why, its pretty obvious..

Heeeyyy... I was gonna say LowCel's Ellsworth Truth. Because I'd like to know what the Truth is....:)

But since you took that one, I'd say I'd like to ride Hambone40's Stumpy real hard. Because it's BEAUTIFUL! (And I heard it could handle it) :D

Hambone's so lucky if you wanna ride his stumpy. ;)

I wanna ride Merton's bike.


Oh wait, his bike don't work...D'OH!

I'd try to ride Merton's just to see what "twitchy" is.....AAAAAHHHAHAHAHAHA!!! :roflmao: :lol: :roflmao:


*sigh* (Oh, man.....sometimes I just make me laugh.....)

I'd snag Fiddy Six's JOCP-mobile (unless he's just bluffing - in which case, I'd ride TheOtherGuy's nicest Masi).

<edit> - and why? I've never ridden a carbon fiber bike and I'd like to see how I like it. (I've heard lots of hype about old Masis, and I've never ridden one of them either.

See, I can follow directions. :D

Vinokurtov (not the real Vino... someone of that username) has a really nice climbing bike in my size. There's a bunch of other really nice climbing bikes that have been discussed in the road cycling forum, but offhand,this is the nicest one I know of that's the right size for me. Boy would I love to borrow that for a day to help me set a PR on Baldy. Of course, I'm a lot slower than him, so he'd have to change the gearing for me.

maelstrom's dirtbag!!!!

maelstroms a dirtbag!!!!

how dare you call him a dirtbag :D

lowcel's enlightenment

I kind of of like sbhikes 'bent.

I've never ridden one of those.

Whoever's owns a Surly Pugsley.

...slcpunks v10...otherwise most bike feel the same to me...maybe gastros bike :)

Whoever has a Honda RN-01, with the CVT gearbox. I want to see what trouble I can get myself into with that sweet peice of utopia.

This.

Or the most expensive roadbike on here, so I could go freeriding with it...

I dont think Greg Minar belongs to these forums.

Any of Jakey's rides, cause they're all sweet sexy Italian beauties. And I know he treats them well.

I'd also love to ride Patriot's Trinity, just so I know what Love is.

Then there's any of 55/Rad's bikes, which I imagine all ride like butter.

I'd love to ride Khuon's bike, so I know what it's like to go to battle with a fully loaded camel and mobile sag wagon.

And I suppose I'd enjoy taking sincitycycler's bike out for a spin, just to know what it's like to be stared at not for looking good, but for looking strange ;)

I'd ride HipCyclist's bike to go Knave-hunting.

The Fixer has a single-speed with mustache bars I would like to take for a spin.

I'd ride HipCyclist's bike to go Knave-hunting.

+1:D

Or one of the Road Forum folk's Madone SSLs, since I might buy a Madone later this year. But there are some sweet italian bikes on this forum too. Tough choice. I'll borrow one of the ladies bikes like Sui, Blondie's or Shadiyah's if they come with it!:p ;)

:D Thanks guys and gals! I appreciate the compliments. If any of you are in the neighborhood you are more than welcome to try any of them out.

I'm not sure who's bike I would borrow, have to think about that one a bit.

I want to ride Tomity's NJS. I have never see it (only his road bike) but I know it hauls arse. Unfortunately with me on it, it wouldn't.
Steve.
found it, top middle: http://homepage.mac.com/tomity/PhotoAlbum36.html

Too many to choose from but the latest and greatest I have seen posted is merlinextra's Paramount track bike.

Wait, lowcel has an IF Crown Jewel? I wanna ride that. And Tomity's ride too. And maybe a tall-bike.

There are so many nice rides on BF. That's one of the nice things about this place, the variety.:p

Yup, Ti Crown Jewel built up with Record. Wheels are either Spinergy Stealth PBO carbon's, am classic laced to RR1.1's built by Mike Garcia, or a PowerTap SL rear with an Open Pro rim. Just depends on my mood. :D

Uh, I need to talk to you guys about the C50 (See Fiddy?).

I had to sell it.

I've got a Schwinn Peleton, a Giant ATX 1200, a Klein Pulse Comp, a Nishiki touring bike with an 80cc motor, and a somewhat dorky 40's Columbia that is dressed up like Peter Fonda's Easy Riding Chopper. What more could I possibly want to ride?

Puchultima's '82 Puch Ultima.

Whatever Terry Morse is riding. Maybe it will make me enjoy climbing hills.

Whoever's owns a Surly Pugsley.
I second that! Those things look like some serious fun!


...maybe gastros bike:)I'd like to try that ol' Specialized out myself.;)

Gastros sweet SX trail.....wait, I've ridden that one.Mael's dirtbag would be a good one,that means I would be in Whistler. Oh, That thing about Hambone40's stumpy..... thats just wrong.

Excuse me, Mr. mtnbiker....

What is wrong about wanting to ride his stumpy? Is it because I'd ride it hard? Okay, then maybe I should be gentle with it. (until nobody is lookin'!) :D

I don't think I'm old enough to read this thread.........:eek:

jyossarian's Rob Roy, now that looks like fun!

I was going to say either gastro's sx trail, or one of lowcels elsworths. I wouldn't mind trying your squishy siu.

Your birthday has passed....No Cake for you!! :p ;)

OK, but you'll have to get it down from up there.

Where was your bike made? Looks like it's trying to jump the border fence with all of it's illegal friends.

That's actually the fence that leads to a bar on the other side. Maybe it's trying to get in w/o getting carded.

maybe gastros bike :)

I'm pretty sure we can work something out. ;)

You too of course, Karldar. Next time in Pisgah, we can swap bikes for the climbs. :D

if anyone has a well equipped gios compact pro with a 20 inch top tube... man... i would like to ride it...

Wot? So now you're posing as a poseur? That's a new one. :p

Hey, I still have the Dream, and my team kits.

So I'm not dead yet.
