Perhaps a guy named Jack should live in Jackstown. Oops, your name is not Jack. LOL In any case, welcome to the forum and happy riding!

Not Jack is riding a Bridgestone Kabuki, blue. Model, 1, 2, or 3... I dunno.

It's got some issues. Doesn't shift very well, handle bar grips are completely deteriorated and replaced by black electrical tape. The derailers are out of whack. The brakes squeal and most of the parts are pitted and corroded. But driving by, you'd hardly notice

I prefer to think of it as a unique fixer-upper opportunity. I've given this bike away twice now. Both recipients failed to use it, and after seeing it sit in the corner neglected, I had to be an indian giver and take it back. Fine Kabukis, as you may well know, are meant to be seen.

The name is Adam, but I answer to either Jack or Tyler. Just don't ask why. The first rule is you do not ask questions.

Stop by the Northeast Regional subforum to find locals to ride with.
