Schwinn's revival?

Well, I think we all knew that Pacific was going to take Schwinn in a different direction, but I doubt any of us expected this!

Thanks

I'm not.

I've got a Schwinn (well, three, if you count two Varsitys, which I don't), and I just finished my second pass of the Potter books. It's all good. Anything to keep it out of X-mart, right?

But hey, to each his own.


Now when they give us the N*Sync series I-Drive, that's another story...

You know, if you're the only one that laughs at your joke, it usually means that it's not funny...

Seriously though, that is some pretty slick photoshop technique. Nice work.
