    VERY COOL!
    Too big for me, but I would love to have one!
    We had a tandem BF in for a new rear D and hub overhaul last week. She was one SWEET ride!
    The owners are an older couple who have toured Europe on her. I was SOO jealous!

    Best of luck in selling it. I'm getting a different model for my trip to France and Spain in May. I'll post pics when it comes in!

    If it were a little smaller, I'd buy it. That's an awesome deal, and they've very cool bikes (I have the lighter weight version).

    Tulip - What are you getting??

    Well, actually I'm 5'9" and shrinking, but I do still ride a pretty big bike. My main ride is a 19" Trek 7.6. So maybe that would fit me pretty well. And Trek420's been nagging at me to get a Bike Friday since she thinks I travel so much. Well, I do travel quite a bit some years, although right now I'm not getting so many flyer miles in due to a tight teaching schedule. But, yeah. At $800 that's a pretty sweet deal. Where is this bike living at the moment?

    DoW, you can't easily ship to my home because I'm usually not here to receive it. PM me and we'll discuss other options. I'm off to walk the dogeeeee now then out so shop for kitchen lighting.

    Makes more sense to have it at Mom's anyway. She has an enclosed garage. And a garden gate behind which a delivery person can tuck it if she isn't home when it arrives. Also, that's where I'll be staying when I visit.

    Yay! Now if we're all in town at the same time, we'll each have a bike to ride!

    anybody want to PM me a Zip so I can get an accurate estimate?
    I would expect $40-60
    And you would prefer UPS, FedEx, or USPS. FedEx is probably the easiest for me to get to.
