i don't leave my bike outside when i'm visiting philly. i keep it in her basement. but whats up with that dude/girl with the yellow single speed schwinn le tour that s/he leaves out in the rain and the frame is in perfect condition. she lives pretty much right next to that person. anyhow, do you guys want to get the teams together and ride with each other? EXCEPT Paul and Pista, because he has gears for this ride... EWWWW!
(joking)
actually, i'm buying a geared bike today. first time in three years. i'm super excited. hilly century rides, here i come! (yes hills, they do exist outside of philly)
