Saw one of my flips in the wild

How cool! I went over to the Jewel Tea(remember those days!)food store today and upon entering the store I see one of my favorite flip bikes that I sold two years ago. The young guy that I sold it too was unlocking it after doing some shopping. I stopped in my tracks when I saw it because it looked so nice. Took me an instant to realize it was one of my bikes and that was the guy that I sold it to. We talked a bit. He said he rides it daily and its his main transportation, and he loves it. The bike was super clean and well maintained. Glad to see a nice bike being used regularly and enjoyed - and well taken care of.
