Default My Subway Bike arrived

My $50 Subway offer bike arrived last week... Whoooppeeee!

It is still in its box because I had another back operation on 13th
December and can't ride it anyway... Sob! Sob!

Might put it together next week, then at least I can admire its
mechanical beauty.

Bugger it, I might put it together tomorrow. (As long as I can get
one of my kids to carry the box out of the garage.)


Regards
Harold

Outstanding! Mine is also outstanding, but in the other sense of the
word. I was starting to wonder if it was goign to turn up at all? ;-)

Bugger! Hope it wasn't a spinal fusion, I've never known anyone who
had one of those who recovered to anywhere near their pre-op
standard. :-/

Do it! At worst, you can do a Jerry Seinfeld and hang it on your
wall. ;-)

No, not yet at the moment they are still snipping away at the discs as
they bulge out. Fusion is a future step but I am 60 now so maybe the
discs will outlive me. My fisrt wife had a couple of vertibrae fused
in the late 1940s after contacting TB in her spine but she is still
kicking on.
