What? Sports Authority didn't have tassels in stock?

Tassels are so last-week. It's frame-mounted mirrors now.

It seems that they forgot to install the engine in this motorcycle. I
would take it back to the shop and ask for an engine, please.

Wasn't there a "rate me" post feating this bike to
alt.mountain-bike in the not so distant past? IIRC the concensus there
was that it merited about 4/10.

Yeah, 20 miles of BMXing or freeriding would be a loooooooong ride!

But now that someone has mentioned it, there will doubtless be an
attempt made to stunt from Seattle to Tacoma or some such.

Seattle to Tacoma isn't all that far. Seattle to Portland, maybe. I've seen
people roller-blade it (in one day, even!), unicycle it, and many many
single speeds and cruisers do it, so doing it on a BMX wouldn't be that far
off the mark. I now wait for someone to announce that s/he has done it.

about 4/10 from my perspective. You can keep it.

It's one of those strange upwrong contraptions. Not my kind of thing
at all.

Wierd looking thing isn't it? I'd think the rider would be sorta hunched
over those handlebars and that small seat... why are the pedals on the
bottom like that?

Your jaw is so slack. I would be embarassed to own something like this.

Should give you a great view of the front wheel while riding along,
though :-)

Probably adequate for its designed use, but I wouldn't have much use for
it. With that low saddle and only one hand position, I'd be dying by
the time I got only 20 miles into my ride, and the rest of the time
would be pure misery.

And just think how fast you'd have to pedal to get up any kind of speed
on a flat road.
