View Full Version : I bought a bike tam 05-25-2002, 01:20 PM My old bike was falling apart from crappiness, so I went to check on some second hands, and found this one for about $70. It's a nice bike, with the same color as my car, pretty much. I bet you thought I was talking about a motorcycle, innit? http://www.geocities.com/tamir_brouwer/bike.txt Unrepresented 05-25-2002, 01:24 PM Maybe all you Europeans have a different system, but at least here in the US that angled top bar means it was intended for the fairer sex. So in other more mature words.... TAM RIDES A GIRL'S BIKE! TAM RIDES A GIRL'S BIKE! Justin tam 05-25-2002, 01:26 PM FYI, the seat has a short front, another sign that its a girly bike. But have you ever tried to hold on to your groceries that you have on the back-thingy, and then break and get off a bike with a top bar? It's impossible. No way I'm ever gonna buy a guy-bike. They're just way too impractical. ......but at least i ride a bike :werd: oh, and i mainly got this bike because i'm teaching my girl to ride a bike (she's american, so she never rode one before), and this bike is much better than the other crappy one that i have. So thats another reason why i bought a girl bike Unrepresented 05-25-2002, 01:37 PM Originally posted by tam FYI, the seat has a short front, another sign that its a girly bike.

I assume you mean the trunk right?:D Must be a translation problem silly non-native English speaker:D And I don't have a roll cage built into my car so I have very little problem in tripping over any bars when getting out.

Bought it back in november 99 tam 05-26-2002, 11:43 AM innit ironic that the brand of this bike is BSA?

(Business Software Alliance) I was wondering if that was a BSA, the reflection makes it hard to tell. Some of my oldest memories of motorcycles were of my dads old BSA, very cool:D Things are sure odd looking across the pond:D |
