Subject: I can't friggin' believe I won this auction So I've been thinking about how I'll soon be able to ride in daylight (my work hours start "officially at 7 am). Right now I'm running during my lunch "hour" on a lot of trails around where I work -- I can do 45 minute runs almost completely on gravel/dirt service roads. Then it hits me -- cheap-a$$ MTB, maybe even a single speed. So yesterday I was cruising through eBay looking at MTB frames, wanting a hard-tail. I've got an old Pro-Flex whose elastomer cushions have gone rock-hard, so I've got the parts that I can transfer over with a minimum of need-to-buy stuff. I stumble on this old-school beaut: And this morning I put some lame low-ball bid on it. While I'm on my run, the auction ends, and I get back to find an email in my Yahoo account that says I've won the auction... for $2.25! Okay, add $30 shipping (which is about what it'll cost). Sheesh. And it's RED! Edited by briderdt 2007-08-28 4:03 PM
