Austin Freak Bike Culture for sale - Be a weirdo for only $200!
Looks like someone's trying to sell their tall bike on Craigslist for $200. If you've ever wanted to be part of that elite cadre of tall bikers who rule the skies (or at least the part of it that's directly connected to the streets), but don't have the welding skill or a friend that does, well there you go. Two Franklins and you're in the club. Here's the ad, which I've replicated below for your convenience:

Sorry guys, looks like bike culture IS for sale. Don't worry folks, this isn't the first time a tall bike's been sold. They've been selling them since the 1800s...

... you can be a weirdo for a lot less. Like $7 at Goodwill. (alas, had to miss that ...)
That dress was borrowed, so that makes me a weirdo for free!
