If FEMA had the bicycles, would it fund Hustler's manlet bib?

Do you know of any affordable, American, aluminum frame builders? I've been looking at Spooky frames but that's $2800 and I don't necessarily need an Enve fork.

Dunno. I always seem to buy big brands that are made in Taiwan. Cervelo, Pivot, Specialized. Hate me.

Bike in question added for posterity.
When you fix the label on your bike. You need to change the "D" to a "C". Then you will be riding a 'Murica bike, and it will be fun.

Does something random like the generally happen during every Tour De France?

Also did you ever get a chance to ride in the Tour De France?

Tour spectators are about like soccer fans so yeah, lots of crazy stuff.

I was never a paid pro. I had enough talent to be a solid mid level domestique had I started when I was young. Domestique is the guy that fetches bottles, shelters the team leader from the wind, maybe never wins a race but is still hella strong. Did a few small time local pro races and even won a few. The pros hate it when an amateur that's 10 years older than them wins their prize money

It's poverty, but I'd ride it if a Parlee weren't available.

I'm guessing Joe since out bikes are prehistoric compared to the technological marvel of his bike.

Today I saw what looked like a homeless man keeping up with 40mph traffic while peddling leisurely on his e-bike.

Living near ASU I see e-bikers all the time. I won't lie on the really hot days I'm quite jealous.

Could you visually confirm their soullessness and disingenuous motives?
