I only read a small part of this thread when it first started.  So, to save me from 15 pages of reading, does that bike really exist or is that a running joke?   ???

No response.


Update: she finally responded to my PM. Still has the bike, it's in the shed. Doesnt know the value and said its hard to sell that way.  Told her I am interested.

The saga continues........................
