BIKES MORE BIKES I BELLOWED I BRAYED

I NEED MORE BIKES, I'LL STACK'EM TO HEAVEN,

ain't she a feckin beauty.

i saw the word kona in the ad and thought i was going to buy something else. when i got there and saw it was a bike i figured; what the hell, i came all this way it'd be a shame to go away empty handed.

the lovely mrs myshkin loves me even more today with an extra bike in the basement.

You just can't have too many bikes!..Only too few basements.

YELLOWDOG GRANNY said...

so? what's her name?
mrs. M is going to bip you into a coma and sell all your bikes.

billy pilgrim said...

tex - thanks, i better have it checked out for micro chip tracking devices. me and jack bauer have to be careful.

sling - right on, when the oil companies make bikes illegal, i'll have spares hidden everywhere.

yellowdog - good point, in my excitement i forgot to give her a name. i better start pondering.

Ananda girl said...

Very nice... I'm envious. I still haven't gotten a bike yet. I need one in a town this tiny... I don't need the car very much if I have a bike.

Please yourself! That's my new motto. Somebody is always going to be pissed off at something. Good for you!

unokhan said...

how long have yall been married and when did she realize she'd taken up with a crazy man

billy pilgrim said...

ananda - get a bike, they're knee and joint friendly.

uno - she still hasn't figured it out, she thinks i'm just a plain old asshole.

sageweb said...

Never have too many bikes..well I guess technically you could..but you got yourself a beauty.

secret agent woman said...

Very nice! Mountain bike?

BBC said...

Not to bust your bubble but to me a bike is pretty much just a bike. And my favorite bike is the three speed I bought over twenty years ago.

The 35 speed three wheeler I made was interesting but far from my favorite.

I've got a pile of old bikes here, what do you need in parts?

BBC said...

I just don't get women, Ananda Girl could pick up a cheap or free used bike and save a lot of money but they don't do that, say they don't have the money for it.

They just keep driving their cars and shoving gas in them while the car falls apart around them because they can't afford the repairs. Really, I just don't get it.

Women, rolls eyes.

Oh do I risk the wrath.

And I’m thinking someone *looks above* just doesn’t get it in more ways than one.

The missus will be able to open a bike shop up when [Bubbha willing, it’s no time soon] you cark it Billy.

BBC said...

I cark it? What in the hell does that mean?

Believe me, I get it in more ways than others think.

No, you won't believe that, never mind then.

billy pilgrim said...

sage - like captain kirk, i need a third alternative.

secret - yup, it's a mountain bike.

bbc - i don't know how many hills in her town but if it flat any old bike will do. i live in a city of hills so i need a bike that climbs hills.

apos - she don't make me cark anymore. i've already taken her best shot.

bbc - i get it that you get it.

Look at BBC would you…thinking it’s always about him. HaHa Heh.

[…cark it = die…]

Mr. Shife said...

I bet the lovely Mrs. Myshkin is happy with your latest and greatest. I hope you get a lot of satisfaction from your new ride.

BBC said...

Her town is pretty flat for the most part, at least the areas she goes to.

Josh said...

Quite a beaut, though I think I might prefer the coffee, personally. With no bike-riding ability, it wouldn't do me much good.

I am far behind on my blog reading (as you can tell)
