Hi all,

I started this thread for anyone who wants to come here for lite discussion, jokes, and just general discussion and fun.

Everyone is welcome!

I was thinking that maybe it would be helpful to keep the original thread to a bit more of a serious discussion of the clues and answers.

This would make the original thread more useful to those seeking serious information and clues without having to read through hundreds of extraneous messages.

So, I hope it catches on !

So pop a beer and pull up a chair and relax !

I finally got the bicycle put together. Couldn't have done it with out the straight-forward advice and photos courtesy of Gary123X -- thank you, and repped.
Anyone know where the front reflector is supposed to be mounted? Why is that front brake cable so long?

I just know that all of you are going to be madly jealous but I had a special surprise bonus in with my bike. A MOUSE!! That's right, a real live catch me if you can mouse came scurrying out of the box along with the bike. Thankfully I unpacked the box on the front porch where UPS left it and not in the house!

That was Smokey the Mouse

after the front brake cable is adjusted cut the extra mile off with wire cutters or side cutters
then crimp one of the aluminun end caps on right away to prevent it from un-raveling
the ends are in the plastic parts bag I got 3 with mine


I put that reflector on the bars next to the grips couldn't find any where else

A long time ago I ordered a free fishing ruler which I really want. Never received it or heard anything more. It did say at that time I got it. Did anyone ever get theirs? Gary, congratulations on your surprise win.

With this group of people, I'm betting several dozen of you have some weirdo thing in your kitchen that you can take a picture of for a shot at an ipad or $200.

I remember that,, didn't bother....... I measure my fish by the pound

I also remember a tire contest that just for registering we were supposed to get a free tire pressure gauge. That was way back during OWTW,,, never got the gauge !
