Yeah, but what does 35" at the cross bar mean? That'd be an 89cm seat tube if that's what he means. Standover makes more sense, now that I think about it. And I could use a touring bike!
edit - But looking at some geometry tables, that likely means it at least a 62 cm bike and likely closer to a 66. Too big for me...

That site is interesting. To me it's seems to be in the same league as "here, have sex with my wife, and I'll take some pictures"

Not that there's anything wrong with that. Just depends what town you grew up in I guess.

I dunno... seems like a mistake worth 30 dollars. Maybe I should email the seller and ask him to remeaure c-c. I have too many bikes but if its 30 bucks I have room for another.

edit: its gone! a true too good to be true.

Where do you want to go? And yes they are a rip off, but deals can still be found if your going to the right places.

Ill Mitch 02-26-07 06:34 PM

looking for flights to Phoenix from around the 8th to the 18th.

Danhalen 02-26-07 06:54 PM

So today I came home and checked my mail. I got a sample of a new paper called "Women's Post". In the top right corner it actually says "Because the news is emotional"!!!!!! This is just so laughably ignorant and off the mark! I can't believe the hilarity of this. It also says that it is geared for the "working professional". Too bad most educated women would be pretty offended by the paternally stereotypical credo of the paper. Not to mention the watered down quality of the articles. This just so stupid/hilarious! I have this image in my head of all these fat cats sitting around a table wearing suits/smoking cigars and thinking they are so smart for really getting inside the heads of women in this new paper that is clearly going to be so successful. This is GOLD. Here's a pic (it's blurry and crappy quality but meh):

Phoenix? Not exactly a march break hotspot. There is not much I can do for you there, charters are the only cheap flights during march break and they don't tend to be heading to Phoenix. If you want to go to Mexico/Carribean/Florida then I could help. I assume you've checked www.selloffvacations.com and talked to travelcuts, if you haven't you should. Outside of that call a real travel agent and ask them about charters sometimes you get lucky.

Thanks for the tip, I tried travecuts and selloff, I'll try calling some travel agents. :)

Offhoff 02-26-07 07:41 PM

Heh, no worries, travel agents are always worth a call just in case. Just don't forget your passport.

i just thought of this; how long have you worked at curbside? for some reason i thought you were at cycle solutions. i can't keep track of who's at what bikeshop on this list...

YEEEEEE!!!

me and my bro went to Sedona back in November to do some mountain biking, best trails ever!

we've wanted to go back ever since.

yesssssss after a few hours of searching found a pair of cheap seats, gonna book 'em, we're leaving next Wednesday. :D

jeremywhitehorn 02-27-07 12:05 AM

if anyone here rides atacs, here's a great deal on some. actually, if anyone is interested in splitting the cost on them i could probably find a home for a new pair.

I've been hoarding those lately since my winter and mtb shoes fit them. He wants 30 bucks for each pair... just an OK deal IMO.

If it was 30 bucks for all three they'd have been gone already! (was planning to grab them on the weekend)
