He'...Oh, the horror!<BR/><BR/>First, he's not wearing lycra. He'll have saddle sores sprouting like mushrooms after a spring rain.<BR/><BR/>Second, the bike is too big for him. Insufficient 'nad room. High squeaky voice. Say no more.<BR/><BR/>Third, the wheels have no spokes.<BR/><BR/>Fourth, it's equipped with Shimano components. Heresy!<BR/><BR/>Fifth, no water bottles, no pump, no spare tube - the mark of a raw newbie.<BR/><BR/>And finally, I can see at a glance that the frame is laterally stiff while being vertically compliant.<BR/><BR/>I'm gonna go have more coffee now.Ed Whttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02661476789768156794noreply@blogger.com
