"And we live in this place!"

"It's really like that. Prettiest beach in Florida. It's without peer."

"This picture looks absolutely stunning!"

"Still looks like snow to someone from Iowa."

"I was able to convince him to get a move on. Once he hit the grass, he was outta there."

"My husband woulda caught him and carried it off to some woods. Him and his brother were known as the snakecatchers back in their younger days :)"

"Yup. A little one, but you wouldn't wanna get too close. There were some joggers not far behind me, and I was trying to shoo him off the path before they arrived. ;-)"

"Diamondback rattlesnake?"

"OK, we're in total agreement on the WTB. The only thing it has going for it is none of us would mind if it were stolen. And since I don't have a saddle lock at the moment, I offer it up every time I park. ;-)

The WTB will end up on one of the bikes I rebuild and abandon somewhere. In fact, I'm a set of brake cables and a pair of cheap pedals away from setting another bike free. Now I have an excuse to buy the B67 sooner."

"I had that same horrible saddle (came with my LHT). I gave it away."

"The same WTB came on my Surly Cross Check, I replaced immediately with a B17 and moved the WTB to my 1984 Gitane, which is the bike I rode from Sarasota to Boca Grande in Florida last week. Pretty sure the WTB saddle is the root cause for the hot foot, sore knees and sore ass I suffered on that 76 mile ride.

Planning to upgrade the Cross Check saddle from B17 to Team Pro and move the B17 to the Gitane. And move the WTB to the trash."

"I am in love with this bike. Except for the incredibly uncomfortable saddle you have there. Bet it came off the LHT."

"There was, indeed, evidence of bad behavior to be found, just beyond a casual view from the highway. It was rideable on my fat tires, but just barely. Had to duck to avoid low-hanging branches."

"I like this shot. The road seems mysterious, like if you have the brass to roll down it you might meet with adventure.

Or pirates.

Or both."
