Ebay woes
 
I cannot possibly describe the depth of my... despair? ...nor the darkness settling into my soul.

For having missed out on this classic, at that price:

I weep.

But think of how much you saved in emergency room visits and general lost productivity. :p

I dunno... I would hold the tears for a foldable superbike...

OK. So it's late at night, you long should have gone to bed, but you can't sleep so you are channel surfing and you run across some grade B, no make that a grade C or D or F, movie from the 1950's in which Humankind, in complete madness, has committed near total thermonuclear destruction and only a handful of irradiated mutants still crawl about on the charred remains of our dear plant Earth squabbling with each other over the very few orts of ghastly tasting food left to fight over.

This is the bike they would build.

And if they built two of them, they would hold a race.

The winner, of course, gets the remaining food scraps.

Looks like the offspring of a Huffy and a Murray! :eek:

I have actually had two of them and they are a hoot to ride but the neighborhood kids keep buying them. Roger

I found those quite tricky to master, but once you have them they're soooo much fun!

What is worse is that I know of someone who owns one. Used it to train her kids to ride unicycles, I believe.

hmmm. Horizontal dropouts.

What the heck is that, a unicycle with training wheels??

Edit: dang, someone else already said that. D'oh. Sorry.

I'm curious, though, how do you even ride that? I can't make sense of the geometry. It must be taller than I think it is.
