What? Are people not proud of their canal bikes? I mean are they that bad?

I got one out of the dump on the cape. Needed a new rear tire, maybe a new set of brake pads, and if I was really motivated, a new set of cables. But with a little oil, lube and some basic bike knowledge, I think I have one for about $50.00. Picked up 10 feet of PVC and some clamps. For the first time in my life, I am thinking about getting a basket for the bike, a kickstand and a few other items I would of never considered before to be installed on my bike.

I do however have a real racing bike, a real mountain bike and and old Bianchi I first bought in high school. All without a kickstand.


Would I be the first to post a picture of a canal bike?
