Lol, how does me cusing some1 else out lead to all these different conversations, i cuss some1 out..."By the way, these guys did try to get the A/C unit out with a forklift. They were going to pull it out from the brick wall. Seeing as how it's my office, I had to remind them that the unit needs to be pulled out from the inside. They would have torn the whole wall down. You guys may not care, but it made lunch entertaining."...where does that into play anywhere?

We pretty much talk smack here all the time, with a bit of bike talk in between. If that's a problem, you should find another forum.
Beerman likes really fast Honda-powered cars, Snazzy is really a snow bunny waiting for winter, Queensrider is a free agent because his pimp dumped him, and Jerry Garcia? Um, he's dead, but has some cool neckties.

Why do you think you need a custom bike in the first place? How long have you been biking? Can you bunnyhop?
