2. if ya want talk discuss loss leaders, perhaps you should tell NYCBikes to look into the concept to help them drum up a bit of positive regard. regardless, you brought up "market price" and i simply pointed out that $6 is in fact not the market price for one roll of velox rim tape. don't get so grumpy when you're proven wrong.

how was your ridin?
dude your trashing them over a few dollars everytime someone mentions their name. Maybe you should try an anger class or something to defuse.
And they have plenty of positve regard. I am one of the positives.
I'm grumpy because I'm old. Not that anything in my post would lead one to believe me being grumpy. I'm having fun at your expense.
And you are a Troll no doubt about it.
And no I'm not an employee. Sorry. Witz.
Nice ride. Mine was on a conctrete oval for 1-1/2 hours.
Maybe next time someone posts a question about shops, etc think about holding your fingers back and do some deep breathing, count to 10 backwards. And let some other people voice their opinions rather than dictate yours.
Just a side note, is your band Reds the same Reds from the 70's?
