And these days, in Philly, I've been seeing more & more hipsters using them... Weird.
All the older guys in my area ride them like that and have been for about 35 years, and they are far from bums/hobos. Matter of fact if any of you feel like going to the corner of 4th and Indiana (Philly) and telling the guys there that their riding "bum bars" let me know, I'd love to be there and get a pic of you walking to the hospital with your rear wheel sticking out of your ass.
