I like collaboration, and I really like the name "Amos" for a certain
bike. I like roady bikes, I ride a Quickbeam, which suits me pretty
well, but fantasize about a dedicated Camper and a Randonneur, and I
really like bikes for the impecunious. There just aren't enough old
steel frames around here. Now, that steel fork upgrade! Yeah! Public
Service! I remember a beautiful young woman who lost her front teeth
and her smile in a front-end failure years ago, so this is bigger than
it might seem at first. That, and Smile Train. At least I can afford
to donate some cash and buy a t-shirt...

Since I had to look it up for myself, I figured I'd copy here. Just
in case there are other less sophisticated readers out there, besides
me...

impecunious –adjective- having little or no money; penniless; poor

I feel privileged to be able to sit at the table with you guys.

Right on, Bill.

I haven't pre-ordered a Hunq, but I sure might if Amos comes on out. Especially in that Romulus looking blue the floor sample frame is done in. Or what was Ram green, or Legolas red......

On behalf of the rest of the class that was too shy to raise their
hands I appreciate the definition of "impecunious " (triple word
score).

Thanks
