Re: Craigslist nightmares and dreams... funny stories

That yellow one looks like mine, if mine had actually been used.

Here is a CL story that could have been a nightmare. My son recently sold his Playstation on CL. I told him to meet any buyers in a public space. When he left, he told me he was meeting the guy at a gas station that I knew was a busy location. I asked if he was going alone, and he was not, he was taking a friend of his (they both play lacrosse and are good size kids) the next day I asked him how it went. He told me that when he arrived at the gas station, and texted the guy, the guy says "hey, we are at this motel, could you come on over here? My son, who I have tried to raise without my cynicism says "Sure!" They go to this no tell motel, go into the guys room, set the game up and demo it for him, he offers them a joint, they decline (I hope) and leave. Fortunately everything turned out fine, but geez, he has no idea what he let himself into. I asked him "what do you think someone was doing at a motel like that?" His response "I just figured they were on vacation and their game broke" BTW, this all happened around 10:00 PM, which was much later than when he left the house.

Did you report it to the PD?

Report what?

Guy w/ dope & trying to give it to your son.
Nahh, I did not find out about it until the next day, my son looks a lot older than he is, so I do not think that the guy figured he was under age.

That's easy; (we took off the new good stuff and replaced it with the garbage off this old p.o.s. bike) vintage parts!!!! Now that is funny!

Like this bike I found at a yard sale last year crap bike with a vintage seat. I paid $10 for it just to get the seat.

I have seen plenty of basswards forks, but the forks and stem are right. It's the bars that are basswards.

It does look quality, but if I was a Harley Davidson collector or even just like HD then I'd spend that money on... you know... a Harley Davidson.
 
Re: Craigslist nightmares and dreams... funny stories

Pretty slick looking bike though.
 
Re: Craigslist nightmares and dreams... funny stories

Sweet looking bike, I saw one on Auction Kings...It sold for $800 I think. Still for $3800 I'd rather build one of these:

At the end of the golden age of Riteway, IE: GT bicycles dealers could buy them for sub $300.00 shipped......

I never kept one as they rode ummmmmm, commuter bike too long, really high bb, and bars.
