i was driving down the road last night and saw a bike. i couldn't tell what it was so i figured if it was there today i'd grab it if it looked decent since i wanted either an SS roadie or a fixxie. so, checked it out today and this is what's sitting in my garage right now:

aside from some surface rust and a small ding, the bike is in really great shape. the rims are true and the hubs even sound good (they roll so that's a start!). a new set of tires, some new wrap on the bars, a little love and bam! roadie SS!
gotta love what people will toss out these days!
