Hey where are Mr. Zorro's photos?

USAZorro 08-31-16 03:09 PM

Sorry. Been having a time of things.

I selected a gold chain for a fixed gear project, a Cateye Mate connector so I can run my old trusty computer between two of my steeds, a couple black plastic cable guides for said fixed gear project, and a couple BoC stickers (there are tons of them left). Box should be arriving in Vermont manana.

There was also a tiny button that I selected, but it wandered off during the photoshoot. When it returns, I'll shoot it.

The speed of box turn is rivaling Michael Phelps.

La boite de kaka arrive!

Tres styling! Et tres lourd (heavy).

I claimed a considerable amount of crap.

http://i800.photobucket.com/albums/y...pswlghfbf9.jpg

I replaced it with a like amount of lighter crap. Actually, that's a lie. I unfortunately purged all my crap some time ago, so I had no choice but to put decent stuff in the box. Arrrgh.

The box arrived late on Saturday and we are headed into Sunday and a holiday Monday. I will get it on its way as soon as I can (and as soon as I get nlerner's address - check yer PM!), but the box may end up taking a 48 hour vacation here in Portland Ore until the US Postal Service resumes its noble duty.

good haul!!

Fahrenheit531 09-03-16 10:21 PM

Almost kept that 3rd Eye Mirror for the novelty. A fine haul! And on behalf of all, thanks for clearing a bunch of the bigger stuff. :)

jyl 09-07-16 01:57 PM

BOC is en route to nlerner!

[MENTION=381793]gugie[/MENTION] Aw, you kept my daughter's cat pic. :) <3

I am loving the addition of the art to the metal cover!

BluesDaddy and I have already communicated and ready to do some BOC turn around faster than Chris Froom r**ning to the finish line in Le Tour.

The BOC has arrived! A little beat up, but largely intact.

On my doorstep:

I'm off on an all-day bike ride tomorrow, so I'll be sending it off to [MENTION=147177]BluesDaddy[/MENTION] first thing on Monday.

jyl 09-10-16 09:41 PM

BOC is loaded up and ready to go out to [MENTION=147177]BluesDaddy[/MENTION] tomorrow. It's just going one state over (from MA to NH), so hopefully the existing box, seriously reinforced with packing tape, will hold up.

gugie 09-11-16 08:50 PM

Wow, some nice brake levers! Who flung 'em?

jyl 09-11-16 09:05 PM

Glad someone can use them - like I said, I don't have enough crap left.

OKAY!
I just plowed through the basement bike lair and organized all my pieces and parts pulled off poor orphaned machines that pass through... Hope you folks are ready for some spectacularly unspectacular patina'd (or maybe just greasy) mid 80s Cr@p!

BluesDaddy 09-13-16 10:40 PM

The BOC has landed after its short trip up I-93.

The box 'as 'ad it. I'll be using a new box.

Peeking inside...

The metal armor is taking a beating...

So I did a little straightening:

The haul:

As soon as I get a new Large Flat Rate box, the BOC will be on its way to [MENTION=422551]YogaKat[/MENTION] .
