local





my brother in law's dirty-but-nice McCaig (Bendigo).
can't show you the full bike because then I would give away its cover.
apparently the frame-builder himself asked its new owner what stickers
her would like on it
"Colnago? Bianchi?"
the owner, wisely, asked for the name of one of the shittiest brands of the time
instantly devaluing his investment
in the eyes of both wankers and thieves
who only look at labels,
not lugs
or frame geometry
or components.
suntour superbe groupset btw.
