latest junk bike

Sadly, my second Pirate Bike disappeared a week ago. This will be its replacement as my around-town junk bike:




This is my 5th junk bike that was being thrown away by a neighbour. (By now the neighbourhood should know to just drop off the old bikes at my driveway!)

Needs: blinky lights, mirror, splash guards, rear basket.


Sadly, it's only a 6-speed. Its predecessors were 18 & 21.
