Damn. I know buying from a distance is a gamble, but the bike really looked tip top going by the ad.

I have a vauge memory of what the asking price was. Tack the cost of shipping onto that? Not a small purchase.

If it was me, I think I’d have to consider that I already had a high enough amount into the bike as is, that I’d have sink more in just to make it right. Otherwise it’s just money tossed.

The toughest part of it all however would be knowing that I’d never recoup the investment, which would especially sting if I couldn’t fall in love with the bike as a keeper.

Hard decision.
