Since you posted a link, I'm speculating that it was considered advertising and thusly moved to swap and shop. Had you simply started a thread stating that you were upset you had to sell that bike, I speculate it would not have been moved. That said, I'm very sorry you have to sell such a beautiful bike. I can only hope that you find a buyer who will treasure it and not restore it just to make a quick buck. And if you do, I hope that you find some consolation that way. It's a beautiful, priceless bike and I can't imagine how sick it must make you to have to sell it.

Yeah, from when you posted it. The "score" right?

It's just a bike. A piece of hardware. No spirit, no soul.

Stop sobbing, there are better things to weep about. Dead parents, dead wife, dead dogs.

I didn't see the bike the ad was taken down, but I can sympathize with you as I've had toilet bikes go in the past.

It had more soul than anything built in the last 50 years....
*bursts into tears again, curls up under desk moaning softly*
But seriously.
At least it went to a true believer and not some skidmark hipster.

Ah, there ya go, getting better already - :)

Who knows? Maybe you get another one some day all covered with cobwebs in the back of someone else's garage for a song. Or maybe something even better like one of those older (every other tooth) sprocket models.

And maybe you got enough jingle then to fix it proper. One can only hope - :)
