Blasphemy and Heresy!! P___C___g ugh! Is for cheap cannonfodder everyday stock slug two wheel contraptions. Do you want to know how I really feel about it? The overwhelming beautiful cycling machines we discuss on this CR should be painted as close to original in paint and scheme as possible! I fell like resurrecting Torquemada and putting you all on the rack until your attitudes get back on track. I think I'll have a glass of champagne, go downstairs, get my hacksaw, and cut some gaspipe or beer can special in half to get over the assault on my senses. Imagin pc'ing a timeline bike. I can't believe it. Ted Ernst Palos Verdes Estates, CA
