Bike blerg thread

I think anybody with half a brain can think of a few ways to “get away with murder”, but if you have a personal connection to the victim I think you’ll always get some interest as a suspect.

Best way to get away with murder in the USA is probably to engineer some sort of tragic automobile accident

Or get them to ride a bike and run them over

Literally just run over your enemy and tell the cops you dropped your McRib from McDonald’s and had to pick it up and in that second you hit the pedestrian. Cops will be like “understandable, have a great day”

This seems completely unsubstantiated and bad to spread around. I skimmed the posts and the time line doesn’t line up - the redditor mentions dating said person for 2 years and breaking up with them a few months ago (one month before a post 47d ago).

Seems unlikely said user is Moriah.

Anyone familiar with the Aeoleus Butterfly magainze from the 90s? Is the collection worth getting? I’ve been reading through the Rivendell Readers and this seems like worth reading next. I guess it’s like the ur-Vintage Bicycle Quarterly?

Oh nice find, I saw on google groups it was mentioned as “xerox copies” but that looks pretty good.

Is he involved in the murder beyond the love triangle?

No indication of that.
Just residual stink of lying about stuff in relationship, including to her when he was with mo that day, maybe for buying a his/her gun after gf found out about brief Mo fling, even as Ross would say, “we were on a break!”

I don’t like this kind of drama

might not be involved on a criminal level, but cheating on his gf, lying about his whereabouts, and buying said girlfriend the murder weapon… that’s involved enough, even if it not technically criminal.

Well, yeah. I don’t think anyone here is freeing him of being terrible. Just not involved in actually carrying it out.
