Another Sale!: 2001 Terry Classic

Made another Craigslist sale very late last night. Because I wasn't going to be home till midnight, the buyer decided to wait even though he had to drive back up to San Francisco -- wow! But I did give a discount from my listed price.

I had bought this bicycle years ago thinking that my mother might be able to ride it. But maybe "skinny" wheels were kind of scary for someone who doesn't ride the bicycles much. It never really got ridden.

But it was a solid ride, and had the most-updated parts out of all my bikes.
It also had braze-ons for both rear and front racks, and would make a great commuter bike.

Sold: 1991 Bridgestone MB-3

Every time I come back home to California, I try to tidy up the remnants of my past life of bicycles. And every time, I am sad to see myself willing to get rid of more and more things.

So I ended up selling this Bridgestone MB-3. I had been holding onto it for quite a while, but I just don't think I'll have the time to fix it up. I was sad to see it go, but hopefully someone will be able to enjoy it instead of having it sit in the garage.
(Though, after I had sold it, I wondered if I should have parted out/used the Deore DX parts on the bike)

I was surprised how many responses I got for this Craigslist post, especially with the seized seat post. But I suppose others are more efficient at removing seized seat posts.
