Default bike junk

Man I thought I was the worlds best scavenger. Today I stripped out teh bike which I bought yesterday. It was a twenty inch huffy. I bought it just for the wheels, chain and the crank. I took the seat and kickstand before I junked it out. The only thing I didn't salvage was the frame. I just don't have a place to store frames.

I dropped it on the curb them went in to pay my final goodbyes to the sissy schwinn. Parted out you know.

When I got back with the schwinn frame about five minutes later, the huffy was GONE. Somebody had a use for that tubing or is selling it for scrap. With the price of gasoline how anyone can afford to cruise for scrap is beyond me.
