So after days of rain, my bad fortune with cars pushed me to get Bumblebeena on the road...

$40 initial purchase.
$13.48 cables, because I don’t want to die.
$7.89 saddle...switched this in for the 13.76 Selle Italia Q-Tip or what ever it is even the yellow looked cool. Had to save money.
$14.00 Gatorskins...I used a mixture of BS and sound accounting for the value on these...I got it with a lot that included 5 fixie pizza delivery bikes with rims and tires, and then handed these off with a few other suspect fixie tires...all for $75.00. I think I may be too generous, but thought I’d be fair...and it was a nice round number. Andy wanted me too enter more bikes to reduce the cost...I decided to reduce the cost since my knees can’t handle 6 challenges!
$0.48 reclaimed black handlebar tape...it’s actually cool feeling. Cost pulled from my buttocks..
10.00 Look pedals. Used the full cost of an add on lot to a previous purchase. Bought tools, got two garbage bags full of niceties. Could have used all black SPDs from the same lot...thought I’d try the Look...reserving the right to switch out but they felt pretty good. Had to figure out the took Delta cleats...
$0.60 bee stickies. Pricing for 10 in case they fall off or I need some to plug some rust...
$86.45



Missing black plug thingy...? A bee is the answer. Lovingly superglued...

Drive side...darn biopace

The artful pose...Bumblebeena is happy to be back on the road after a long hiatus...Bumblebeena did not like rusting...

Cionelli saddle...close enough. Came in a lot of four “imperfect” saddles...

The Look pedals...after scrubbing and using mother’s to polish! Oh wait...it’s carbon fiber...oops.

Where nail polish, evaporust and soon bumblebee stickers converge to fix the rust!

Sort of proud of how effectively the rust is hidden using distance and a blurry photo.
