  How do we set up a "Used New Bike Fund" for Terry?

  by BucketShopBill in

  is there any way we can try to start a crowd-fund to help terry get some wheels quicker than he currently can?

  with craigslist and a couple of bucks from a few members we can help terry get moving.

  does anyone have any ideas how we can do a "theists for terry" bike fund raiser and challenge the atheists to a bucket-head challenge?

  FHN, go to a local bike shop and talk to the people there. I'm sure they can make some suggestions.

  Yes, Vidiot, a Hermann or a Heinrich will do, but if you can't find either of those to strap on top of your head find a helmet instead.

  Terry, I'm so glad that you were able to get a new bike thanks to the good people on this site. Wish I could have helped in the effort. Bianchi is a great bike. Please get yourself a helmut if you don't already have one. Accidents happen in the blink of an eye at the most unexpected times, and a helmut is an ESSENTIAL piece of gear to protect yourself from head injuries. I cringe when I see people riding without one, especially kids. Four years ago I took a hard spill when 2 dogs ambushed me and one of them got under my front wheel. I went down hard and fractured my collar bone, but my helmut did its job, breaking its shell. That could have been my head. I didn't even realize it until days later when I took a close look at it. The other stuff isn't really necessary on short rides like you are taking, but a helmut is.

  I HAD MY BICYCLE STOLEN!

  three months ago i had to stop driving my car.

  it wouldn't pass inspection and it would cost about $3k to get it up to par.. well, it's a 98 honda accord with about 179 thousand miles on it, what did i expect?.

  .. i decided i would switch to riding a bicycle instead.. it has worked out fairly well.. i put about 10 miles a day on it.

  Several years ago someone stole my hybrid, but it was recovered a couple of days later. It's a sickening feeling. I know someone who had her $3000 bike stolen right out of her garage. She checked Craigslist and a couple of hours later found it for sale. Not wanting to alert the police since he knew where she lived she ended up paying $300 to buy it back.

  how does this sound for JW delusional hypocrisy? ??

  by Lied2NoMore in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  an aging family member the other day related this gleefully who btw claims to have his prayers answered for the most mundane things...like a ride to the recent regional convention just because he asked almighty jah for it...anywhoo.... he related that a national satellite provider wanted to charge him an early termination fee for cancelling his service..... ..well he gets on the phone and tells them he is an "old coot" who is homeless and going into an old folks home...so what do they do?.

  write off the fee for.the "old coot" jw who has no trouble lying thru his teeth just to get out of a fee he agreed to pay because no doubt he knows jah would be pissed if he didnt let his yes mean yes and his no..no.... real story?

  he just sold his home and is sitting on the proceeds from the sale...... so many jws actions i have seen thru the years scream they have no belief in god....well the angry delusional wt god they claim to give their devotion to.....

  An "old homeless coot" has a satellite dish for his TV? Something about that just doesn't make sense.

  i'm wondering what sort of biking shoes and pedals you are using.

  i'm a road biker, so i enjoy speed and distance riding, and am upgrading my shoes and pedals.

  anyone have experience with specialized road shoes with the boa stem?

  I'm a little worried about my cleats, GLTireBiter, since they are SPD-SLs but I've ordered a pair of Shimano cleat covers so walking in them should be better and protect the cleats from wearing out too fast.
