CL has no corner on the market of boneheads... I saw the following ebay listing: http://cgi.ebay.com/2002-IRON-HORSE-...item2eb5e349da

It contains only a catalog description and a stock photo of a bike that was manufactured 10 years ago... I could use a rail trail rider, though the need isn't great, so I sent a question asking for a size and maybe a picture or two so I could see the condition. The response I got was to come see it myself (location not narrowed down) and a phone number. If I wanted to spend an hour doing that, I would have asked if I could come see the bike. While I appreciate the opportunity to see the bike, I am not even mildly interested unless the bike is pretty much in new shape and the opening bid is the high bid. With a lack of any info, I can only assume less than ideal condition.
