Fun comment

Right after the 14 year olds go "Cool Bike!" I always get asked "How much does it cost?"

My standard reply has always been something like too much, or last night, "More than my first car."

Last night I got the reply "Big deal, Model Ts didn't cost that much."

Someone said they found the smiles they provoke when riding to be condecending or patronizing.

That would be one take.

Personally, I feel I am the local distributor of happiness.

Those who resent my presence on the road are another story. I haven't found a positive take on
them yet.

They're jealous?

Last week my son and I were out tooling around, checking out His 'new' Vision and I was on my
Vision, I heard a remark from an older homeowner, working in his yard... " I see the circus is back
in town" I laughed intermittantly for the next few days, whenever I thought about the wisecrack

Who is that clown, any way.

I had a man follow me in his car for about 4 blocks whistling "Enter the Gladiators".

p.s. Enter the Gladiators is the catchy little tune they play on the calliope at the circus when
the clowns are running around.

Near the end of yesterday's ride, at the top of a put-it-in-the-bottom-gear and try not to cough up
a lung climb up an ancient riverbank, a tiny tyke riding on his dad's shoulders said,"Dad, he's
lying down." "Mikael Seierup" <[email hidden]> wrote in message

Chris I always wanted to see a photo of your Schwinn "one-off" tadpole and now that I have I can see
why Schwinn decided one was enough. Too bad really that Schwinn did not keep at refining the design
and by 2003 we'd have a Schwinn Windcheetah in Wal-Mart. Curious...don't your feet go numb at that
height and the neck aches must be unreal without a pillow.

On a long ride; I suppose so, numb city. The worst part is trying to see the tree ahead... The
picture throws off the size of that trike. I am only 5' - 8", but that tray/seat is over 3' long. No
pillow, and I would only see the sky. UP; PERISCOPE!!

Talk about laid back! That looks like a bike made by Serta.
