Every few years, when I need to quickly save mass quantitites of cash I enter The Heeb Mode. My Jew buddy Mike is the guy that coined that phrase, so don't get all Mossad on me. The HM is a blast of hardcore money saving. It's basically all about getting the Brown Recluse Purchasing Department to hunker down and spend no dough. Enough with buying too many surfboards already. It's all about baloney sandos, PB&J, Top Ramen, water, and brewing my own coffee. Time to go through my shit and Ebay like a motherfucker. I've got a Vintage 1990 pink Klein Rascal with the original Rock Shox rs-1 fork that is a goner. I'm gonna ride my other bikes to save gas money. Anything I can do save even $1 today will buy more Bintang later.

the US dollar goes a long way in Bali too!, can live like king for sure.
ReplyDeleteThat Klein is big dollars.
ReplyDeleteYah, the Klein should get me roughly 500-600 dollar beers closer to Bali. Unless some OC fixie guy wants it, then it should net me in the 900 dollar beer range.
ReplyDeleteprepare to be amazed at how few dollars you can get for anything. 200 tops for the gay seinfeldcycle (not that there's anything wrong widdat)...I know your zone and my zone are two different CL bike sale zones (pops claims UCSB as beach cruiser heaven), but the rigid basic mtb's are 200 tops. Even for a period-correct high end one...
ReplyDeletesad but true. shit's like baseball cards.
I've been selling off old bike racer-guy stuff to the UCSB fixie army who enjoy wearing nut huggin tights and stretched v-neck sailor shirts and Seamen hats. Ahoy, bandwagoneers!
ReplyDeleteI have noticed that "Gay Waldo Yachter Zizou" is the look of the day...these fools just keep making me look better and better--and I'm a fruitcake.
ReplyDeletethat fucking stem is insane: what is the DEAL with that stem?
ReplyDeleteMission Control stem, yo. Complete, not a scratch on it and it ain't got Da bends like 99% of them. Shitz like 250 Bintangs on Ebays rigth now...if you can find one.
