Driving to the uniform supply for my job I pass a rundown building with a small hand written sign that reads "Flea Market". As soon as I am about to laugh I spot a tall mt. bike. I pull over on the sidewalk, hop out and take a look. I have noticed that when I get excited about finding a bike I usually overlook what's wrong with it. Not today. Wrong size rear tire/rim, stripped crank arm and ripped seat. To be honest all I was interested in was the frame and the bmx type forks.. "How much?" "Uhh just give me ten bucks" SOLD!! I think it would make a nice Klunkerish, Adultsize BMXish bike.

Next is a simple ebay find. Drove an hour to pick it up. Five bucks. Free Spirit, possible doner bike for the Ross.
