How'd you feel, watching it ride away under someone else?
I sold a bike to finance the move west. I'd had many a good trip on that machine (as had my wife), and we were both fairly choked up (wife made it past choked up and all the way to weepy) as some dude rode it away.

Schweet. BTW, does your bike ride lower to the ground than those other two? Actually my brother's rides lower than mine, but both ride lower than my dad's. Weird camera angle, I suspect. (edit) Or it could be the fact that I'm quite a bit shorter than he is, so I look like I sit lower. Dystopia- I feel bad now for jacking this thread, if you can separate my t/j into a new thread, that'd be just super. If not, well, that's *fudge*in' golfhos, I suppose. There's an option called Split Topic. i've never used it before. What would you like the new thread called? is fine.  |

At any rate- I'm bummed for your loss. Hope you are able to ride again in the future, if you so wish.  |
