The people at the bike shop on Commercial (the big one with the bikes out front) took a look at it and told me that I'd be looking at $150 just to fix it up to minimum running, with more repairs in the future, and that it might be worth $50 if I were to sell it.

I bought a bicycle at a garage sale for $15. After some fidgeting with the breaks, and, after an exhausting slog, realizing that I should really make sure the tires are inflated, I took it out.

Beautiful.

Out to BCIT and back via the scenic mostly lost route. I got to explore the city. Fun!

So now I am busy prepping it up and swapping out tires and handle widgets.
I also need a pipe wrench: the seat stock is stuck.


I think a little ceremony to bless or name it might be in order.
