One more time Pastor Bob! One more time, I'm gonna get back in the ring! I'm gonna take you up to the top of the STEEL CAGE and Hungarian Suplex you down to the mat- while the Mongolian Nightmare takes care of your tag partner, the Muscled Marauder- we are going to systematically take your tag team apart. Our manager, Crafty Amos Picklebauer will get the ref's attention by trying to throw a bucket of jello on the mat- but it's just a trick! Crafty Amos has learned a thing or two in the BFRCWF and is bringing his brain to the BFC&VWF to show everybody how it's done!
After we're done, it's going to be lights out for Pastor Bob and the Muscled Marauder!!!
And dat is all da people need to know.
Now THAT'S pathetic.
I remember the local wrestling shoots with the Crusher- he must've been like 90, carrying a half barrel on one shoulder and smoking a cigar- doing his "one more time I'm getting into the ring..." bit...
I guess I never watched enough TV wrestling to pick up on the nuance of all this!

Well, this is about as good and safe a suggestion as using gasoline to clean your freewheel!

I probably will. But based on the fact that it is supposed to be for a less than 200lb rider, and the corrosion issue, I'll probably unlace the rim and mount it on the shop wall.

I guess this is the case. I doubt I'll visit any time soon. They'd mock the heck out of my 10-12 mph average speed!
