Another Horse To Beat To Death

Enough with the Runestones for a while. Mr.Gabus is kind of throwing down the gauntlet before Rev Dick here. Personally I love the machine - form follows function in spads. I get the feeling that every piece taped onto this baby is a reaction to a past accident or shortage. Bless his anti- Nazi heart. And honestly, haven't all of us Brooks riders craved this seat at one time or other. Thoughts? Anyone?

Wanna get some yuks out of Rev Dick here is my Danish Uncle’s (Johnny Albertsen) Beach Cruiser.  Note the Survivalists gear.  As a child he lived in Copenhagen during the Nazi occupation.  He helped the resistance by putting sugar in the gas tanks of Nazi officers.  What a real adrenalin rush knowing you could get killed for just a cup of sugar.

Anyway he is still very paranoid today.  There must be a dozen black helicopters spinning around in his head everyday.  Thus I thought his bicycle was a real scream.

That bike is horrible. That bike is beautiful.

Your Danish relative and I could safely leave our bikes outside the bar.

Rev he doesn't even drink. So I will ride it to the bar to meet you. Just name the place.

Are you seriously telling us that this bike is the work of a sober man?!

AFFIRMATIVE! scary I know.

Hey can we get the rev and his kids to RAGBRAI. We will all ride with those black eye masks he has on his blog.

Them ain't masks, they is sunglasses...indoor sunglasses like them blasé New Yoork City bands wear.

Humble small fry as I am, I do not know the purpose of all the specialized equipment attached to the handlebars and other regions of that velocipede, but there are some things better left to the professionals, and that Sterling is a fine example why this is so.
