Wow.

The bike put a smile on my face instantly. I now get the appeal. If it snowed here more regular (like in the old days), it might be my next N+1.
I had thought fatties were just once more toy for people who already had too many. Back in 2014, my S-I-L convinced me to give one a spine. I was hooked in five minutes. It was SO much fun being 7 years old again!
