Bicycle!! I Want It!!! No Fair!!!

I want this bike: http://indianapolis.craigslist.org/bik/429828738.html

But I don't think I'm tall enough...
And I really don't have the money...

But it's yellow...
And has a headlight...
and it's vintage...
and cute...

Oh, I hate being a poor college kid!

Are there any bicycle repair shops that piece together bikes from old bikes? There was a shop here in Hyde Park that did that, for many years. They're trying to get it started up again - I know the old warehouse mysteriously burned down. Anyway, shops like that are seriously well-loved in the cycling community...maybe Indianapolis has one? :)

Nah, what you really want is a TallBike.

Gosh, I think I saw some guy riding one of those in the South Loop area of Chicago? I was afraid some car was gonna knock him off his bike.

That sure is a purty bike.

There ain't nothing like bike love.

I hope you find one that suits you.

I KNOW A GUY WITH ONE OF THOSE!!!

I don't remember his name, though... he came to Critical Mass the first week, and then Cecelia said something broke on it, and he has to get it fixed...

I wouldn't be able to do it, though... I'm barely 5'1" as it is.... teeny people can't do tall bikes!

But that's WHY you need a tallbike!

It'd be like being tall! And on wheels!
