haha, I told that to my friend the other day. She has a Civic sedan and I said, “I hop you got a big trunk, cos I’m gonna put five bikes in it!”

It’s true.

I am going to put five bikes in it.

[quote=“JACQUES”][quote="(|)"]i used to feel like one with my chrome bag…  
i feel like one every time i slip my key that’s on stretchy thing on my arm.  
my pink track bike does it too.  
and my cycling cap.  
my double straps.  
my cinelli 2a stem.  
my short shorts.  
when i had moustache that too.

Is this the image you have of bicycle messengers?[/quote]

not really, i guess. i guess i more or less described what a hipster would look like…lol.  
actually, the guys that work down here wear jerseys and helmets and clipless shoes and usually ride road bikes…but htey do wear short shorts.

Suicide is serious business.  
I’ve been there where I actually tried it.  
Just being in the state of mind where you can do it, is terrible.

sorry for derailing the thread with a giant bummer.

Back on tarck:  
I have seven bikes and only one of them has ever been in a car. My MTB goes in the back of my mom’s volvo when I go out to the burbs to ride trails.

i’ve welded a 6 speed cassette to my cog, keep a second ring up front, have hoods with fake brake levers and index shifters and dummy derailleurs on my brakeless conversion … as long as i keep up a quick enough pace, nobody even seems to notice.
