Stop it, stop it, stop it. . .

Do I have to send some of you to your rooms or to the corner for a time out. If you want to talk about the social implications and economics of bikes in other countries please sign up with iBOB. Do none of the appeals of the last couple of weeks mean anything to you? I'm not about to bail on the list but many others are.

As far as framebuilders go, they are these guys and gals who melt some metal to make some pipes stick together and form something ridable. There are other methods too. There are good builders everywhere, and I mean everywhere, so don't sweat the builders origins. Was Mario an American or Italian builder? It doesn't metter. If you want to support good building everywhere patronise the builder closest to you.

I know this post has just added to the signal-to-noise ratio, and I'm sorry. I feel like the knights that say icky-icky-patang-zip-boing when they utter the word, "It."

enjoy, Brandon"monkeyman"Ives
