I thought I'd seen everything. Nope!

Probably done for one of those Arabesque Donnas, the ones with the chainguard and upright handlebars

I think it's rather hilarious how you and Robvolz seem to be going head to head lately and his signature line is literally a request for one of these...

Aren't those Italian tricolore stripes pantographed on to the leg??
maybe if you polish that thing and gold plate it, it will easily triple in value!

Certainly not mine to give away, but the idea of a C&V Pony Express transporting a worthy Grail across the country came to mind. Now that tale would be told in the Long Houses for generations......

A Campagnolo bubble van pulled by a team of horses with the world's best all-original Confente in it?

I need to call your boss and tell him to work you harder so you have less time for photography shopping.

If I have Cinema4D pushing out a 15-minute-long 3D render, it makes it possible to fart around on a spare computer for that period of time.

Hell, I invested $2k of my own money into processors that could make those 3D renders in 15 minutes instead of 2 hours. My time after five and weekends are frequently abused anyway, so I consider it an equal tradeoff.

(P.S.: Being overworked and being given tasks that aren't in my wheelhouse have also come to dictate what I do for relaxation - one of the reasons I can't get interested about rebuilding The Headbadge site is because I do too much of that type of work for the 9-5.)

Now mount your kickstand on your Colnago Arabesque frame. And make sure you crank down on the bolt enough to flatten both chainstays.

Must be grouped with the even ultra-rarer Colnago dork disc, turkey wing, and reflector set.

It'd be quite a bit of fun to pantograph an entire set of the bits BFisher mentioned above and throw them on an actual Colnago city bicycle.
