SWeeeeet dropouts

Hey, is there a Toronto swap-meet for bicycles? I recall one in the annex last summer but I couldn't make it, where could I find information regarding bike-swaps? Thanks.

I seen him around downtown several times after that. We had beers at the Green Room. http://static.flickr.com/30/10378894...756467.jpg?v=0 ******bag that ticketed the guy on the trike. Later saw that ticketed dude doing some helmet promotion thing on university campus a month or two later. http://static.flickr.com/38/10378894...7d69e0.jpg?v=0 That guy in the uh funny bike had pedal strike riding straight and level. I'm not in any of those pics buu. |
I,ve yet to make it to a C.M. but hope to soon, but not today. my chances on getting downtown for a ride around are also slim.I'm hoping be able to get down to the bike show next weekend at least.Thats if
my wife can hold in that kid very much longer? Cheers P.S. THOSE DROP OUTS ARE SWEET |
operator:
yeah, I've talked to that guy too. When I bought my bike he was actually looking at it as well. Then on that CM I saw him and we chatted for a few minutes. I don't know his name or anything though. |
althought the very act of posting this defeats my goal....
the dc thread is gaining on toronto. my predictions is 2000 posts by mid-March oh.. its on! :) |

It's keeping me up nights and getting into my dreams. Can anyone recommend a paint stripper that doersn't require a gas mask to use? I hear there's a decent one at Crappy Tire. On another note... damn, I got downtown an hour too late to catch CM. Hope you guys are having fun. |
oh! I gotta borrow that citristrip after t-jammer's done!
btw... isn't stripping w/ no ventilation hazrdous to your health? I like citristrip cause it smells good compared to all the other nasty smelling stuff. |
I actually lied about no ventilation, I left the door open periodically to let the fumes air out. But it was hella cold. So not too often. Anyways, the point is that it smells like ooooranges! So any takers with the citristrip? I will deliver it to you if it's downtown.

if nobody borrow's it in 2 weeks, could I use some?
or better yet, anyone want to help me strip & paint my guitar and neck? (I don't have a basement or a garage) :( |

He had quite a few fixie conversions and if memory serves he did have a Ciocc. Not sure if he worked at Blizzard.
My ploy of telling everyone I am playing cards online is successfully hiding my midget porn fetish. curiously, you ever know any guys named yves orton (i think he rode for starship and usually had a fatty nearby) or paul andrews? -ben323 |

btw: those dropouts look dangerously awesome, what does the rest of the bike look like? |
