Hmm. I’m not sure how to reply.
I’m missing the connection to the comparison of ebikes to “bikes with sails” and “alumTisteelcarbon” which were used as metaphors (Poor ones IMO) in your post.
I’m a little slow somedays (jeeze, I could lighten up) – I appreciate your humor. I like to ride as well, and still regularly wear my 1996 RAGBRAI jersey.…[Read more]

Oh my.
People here are seriously trying to compare motorized bikes to bikes with sails? and compared to various frame materials?
Seriously, I think our educational system is failing us. Critical thinking is a valuable skill people, practice it more often.

Sorry, it’s gone.

And we know from experience, if the drive is caught and has a good enough lawyer to tell them to say “I didn’t see the cyclist” that they’ll get a slap on the wrist.

Thanks for the correction on Full Court Press, I’ll see if I can edit that post.
And I have to admit, we also lamented the state of the building – but of course, now we know why they wouldn’t put any money into it. I’ve been told today that the building is gutted already and fixin’ to come down – projected to open early next spring.
Ya, I’ll…[Read more]

R-Daryl Daryl, you are certainly correct – I was having a brain fart.
The jersey is 1997 XXV, just like you said.
And crap, I can’t edit that post.

Funny. Alan Funt (funk?) was hiding nearby.
Jon Bubendorfer started the topic I'm missing Orlando's immensely in the forum Miscellaneous 11 months ago
I’ve been riding some of these trails for decades. I even used to live in Pinewood Apartments, right across Park from “Valley Drive Pub”.
Then Orlando’s bought the place and I thought that was great, because their place up on University (I still live in the Drake area) was pretty darn small.
Orlando’s was a regular stop as I often ride to Cumming…[Read more]

I’m glad you’re on the mend, Donald – damn, all those miles to go down this year.
Keep on Keeping on!

See the picture. It was framed, hung on a wall for many years. Then went to the basement where, it got some water damage and the glass is broken. The Print itself appears to have minimal water damage. It’s proabably about 3 foot tall, 4 foot wide? I could go measure but I’m lazy, you know.
Free for the taking. Actually, I could throw in a…[Read more]

They were new, so in great shape.
Color is black, size is small

So sorry to hear!
Maybe post up pics too, so we have an idea of what to watch out for.
Be sure to post up in the “stolen” sections of all bike forums.
Gah, good luck. I had a beloved bike stolen many years ago, never found it.
