This was a paraplegic racing cart. The young lady had no use of her legs. Her arms were her only method of locomotion.

Ha, that's the problem, I was drinking when I built it and not drinking when I wrapped it.
I think I did Rap drunk once, it started off with " I'm a bubble gum (w)rapper and I'm here to say" and believe it or not, it got Worse.

I knew I was maybe missing something when I was still searching CL and No it wasn't the wrap. THE WHEELS!!!
Soooo, I switched the '88 to the '89 and vice versa. Ta Da, now I just gotta switch out cassettes. Here's the pics. I feel better Now.

Do you store your bikes in a dentist's waiting room?

I'd love for someone to floss my bike. I feel like I've been missing spots.
On a side note, I asked my husband to get my bike into the trainer (there was a skewer and computer issue.) I came home to this. It's got Dora the Explorer on it.
It's a-Dora-bell!

Off topic, but just in case we have any IM patrons in the Evansville Indiana area, let's give a huge shout out to the Purple Aces of Evansville University! They defeated #1 ranked Goliath Kentucky last night in basketball. It might be crazy in that town today.

https://bellingham.craigslist.org/bi...978146019.html Terry designed 49cm IM in coral and white for sale up the road in Bellingham. Oddly both wheels appear to be 700c I believe the original had a smaller front wheel 650a?

Possibly as crazy as Seattle which in the span of two days won an MLS cup (Sounders) and took down the last undefeated team in the NFL, Go Hawks! Ok back to your regularly scheduled IM programming

If you want a cheaper 46cm, close to SeaTac https://offerup.com/item/detail/770854949/

I'd leave it on unless it's not aero. Getting chicked in a tri by a rider with a Dora bell might be too much for some Carbon Commandos to take. Not me, of course. It happens so often I don't even notice.

I'm gonna post my bike pics.... eventually. The thing is the last pics I've posted of them doesn't match what they look like now.
My '86 had white cables and tan sidewalls which I liked but now has black cables and black sidewalls which I like even more now (who'd thunk it?).
My '87 had black sidewalls but now has Yellow/Not tan sidewalls.
My '88 Carbon now has a different set of wheels with very hard black sidewall tires.
My '89 now has the blacked spoked wheels with Conti tires that have a very dark "tan" sidewalls, as seen in this pic.
I'm happy with the way they all look and perform and am waiting for a sunny day to take pics. Also when I do, I'll make sure they're in the big ring and stems at 6 o'clock.

Admittedly, I didn't know either. Of course I saw the movie. My favorite fictional bad ass:
