In other news, y'all would be proud of me. Went to the co-op the other day to find some small parts, and came upon an 'as found' Nishiki in great shape, nice gold color, MY size, and even had Suntour barcons. $40.
I passed!
Someone else will get a great deal, and I found just the right parts to rebuild the Midget for my son. Gonna have some fun this weekend. Also heard that the shipped bikes were safely delivered! Whooho!
Maybe I'll have the chance to get rid of one or two more this weekend.
I have started having the same thoughts when I see a bike at a thrift store. I'll leave it for someone else who might make better use of it than me filling up the barn.
