Well not looking good for me to get it, she just updated her CL post with the following:
She did reply to my email and said that she doesn't know what brand name the bike is, bummer.

Late last night I saw a new posting in the Free section of the local CL for tons of free stuff, and the bike in question was buried in the listing. I sent an email, then left a couple of voice messages, then another email. She was overwealmed (sp?) with responses for all her stuff and is in the process of getting ready to move on top of it all, plus some other stuff that I won't get into that I read and also discovered.

So, "Dan", if you're one of the local bikeforums people, could you let us know what the bike really is?

I'll have to agree with the Lotus guestimate due to the red coloring in the name on the downtube.

I'm still going to drive past her house in the morning on the way in to work however since she did tell me in her email that if the bike is still there in the morning then I can have it. (Hope is still alive, chances are slim, but hope is still there.)

Good deals are where you find them, but sometimes you end up second in line.

Oh well , I think I'll visit a couple of thrift shops on the way home and see what they have.
