My issue with the beater bike solution is that life is short. Much as I like to pleasure ride out in the great beyond, truth is most of my riding is going to work or running errands in the city.
Sure, a beater bike means less to worry about when parked. But it also means most of my riding will be on something that is anything but fun to ride. In 8 years of bike only living the only bad luck I had was when a truck backed over my then favorite bike. Sure I was down for a while, but now I have a great new custom that I really enjoy riding. Good bikes and quality parts are replaceable. Time wasted riding a junker is not. Haha. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
