RE: https://mastodon.murkworks.net/@moira/116988951616592476 I meant this, by the way. I know the odds are low, but does anyone local want a 13-year-old 7-speed Schwinn Gateway? It's not a good bike but it has a comfortableness to it. Terrible for hills, but not so bad on the flats. You'd want new tubes and tyres, these are ancient even if they do still hold air and have tread. No warranty, obviously, get any new-to-you bike checked out before riding, etc etc etc. It's free and entirely at your own risk. #BikeTooter #OldSchwinn #BikeRepair #seattle #northshore

RESET THE CLOCK (third coat) The hammer texture is absolutely hiding the rust pocks, I’m happy with it so far. #BikeRepair #OldSchwinn #fenders

All I'm gonna say is when this rusty old Schwinn was dumped off and then handed to me the wheels did not turn and if you made them turn it felt like dragging rocks. spin: #BikeRepair #Schwinn #OldSchwinn
