I have a Fuji Absolute I bought back around 1985 or so; some kind of
cheap mountain bike I got for $50.00 from a pawn shop in Kileen, Tx so
I'd have some way to get around Ft. Hood before I came home from Desert
Storm back in 1991 and a Marin Muirwoods I bought from REI while I was
in school in late 2005 or early 2006 as my part in a "smart commute"
campaign.
Trying to commute by bicycle in Raleigh, NC ain't all that smart. I gave
it up after a city bus knocked me down & just kept on going.
Just did a street view in Google Maps and the pawn shop down in Kileen
is still there. Ahhh, nostalgia!
I'm not posting photos unless I actually start riding again. Which I
might or might not. I've got a lot of walking to do first to get back
into good enough shape I can even try to get into shape riding a bike.
I've also got 2 or 3 junk bikes down in my basement that I, in my
infinite pack-rattery, have kept because I had some idea I could fix
them up good enough to donate to charity instead of sending them off to
the land fill.
