    I found his team mate training for next big race….

    I dig the suspension on her ride! I wonder how many inches of travel in the back?

    You know what gets me… back then she would have been freak show status or a carnival attraction… now ‘adays, it’s like every trip to a fast food joint (or checking out the “odd folks” at http://www.peopleofwalmart.com/)

    *** Happy Friday the 4th of May ***

    Made it through another week… couple days off to get the head clear!

    I used to race road bikes way back and in college, so I’ve always loved the Spring Classics and the Grand Tours around Europe and finally here in the States too. From year to year you see teams come and go, I’m left wondering where some teams went and there’s usually no answers.

    With this picture, I have no questions, I know exactly where the Lampre Racing Team went… they were eaten by this guy!!!

    Yep… Manbeer still owes me a pair of Ringle “Peace Sign” cable hangers that I paid for right before he disappeared… kinda’ screwed! Oh well, the whole goes around thing is cool with me as it’ll come back to him. ;)

    Sith- where the heck are ‘ya? The baby gotcha wrapped up? C’mon man, don’t pull a “Manbeer” on us!!! I expect your humor to contribute to the Friday picture thread ;)

    Before selling it, I actually took it into my local bike shop (ironically that use to sell barracuda bikes back in the day) trying to trade it in on something more my speed these days. They really liked the bike but declined to take it on trade. They said as cool as it was, for them to put the effort into fixing all the little issues it had and replacing some very worn parts (a requirement for re-sale at their shop), just wouldn’t be worth it in the end. No room to make any money they said. I asked how much the bike would be worth if it was on Craigslist or something… as-is… he ultimately settled on $75.00 (with the disclaimer that it’s truly worth what someone is willing to spend on it). 🙄

    After all that, I felt good selling it for $125.00. The guy who bought it seemed pretty excited about it too. It’s in a better place now AND i finally got a nice comfort bike for me to ride around with my wife and kids… and gentlemen… that’s all I ever wanted in the first place.

    Thanks Cuda Heads!

    Me thinks that’ll be the last we’ll see of dennisk… just visiting I suppose.

    Well, Earth Day came and went… I didn’t get the RASKAL rebuilt for a couple reasons, the paint for my Hunter SuperCrown fork to match has been backordered and I’ve missed winning a few auctions for the needed components to finish up the build. Oh well, that’s how it goes… patience grasshopper… when you can snatch the pebble from my hand…

    Anyway, I did manage to land a few more choice bits of bike jewelry… a NOS AC cnc’d brake booster, a NOS Tioga h’bar, a pair of Winwood “Decksters” clipless to platform pedal, a Thomson stem, and a PAUL “Thumbie” (for the 1×9 drivetrain), a PAUL Neo-Retro canti rear brake to go with the PAUL Cross Top brake lever.

    I’ll keep you posted as the build comes together.

    Next time someone shows up looking for offers on a sweet Cuda, I’m tossing $100.00 at ’em… I’d rather insult them with a low offer and get chewed out for doing so… that way I don’t have to feel like kicking myself (which is what I’ve wanted to do ever since he posted the sale price)!!! 😥

    Yep…

    …the piping on the velvet couches nicely matches the neon in the background on Jay Leno’s set…

    …and…

    (brain fade, forgot what I was going to say as I was mesmerized by her…)

    Hey skubi1-

    Welcome to site!

    Can I ask why you are repainting the frame? It looks like it’s in great shape and yes, $35.00 is a good price! The only thing I could see doing is replacing the barracuda decal on the seat tube (denoting a post ’96 Ross made frame) with a TREES AMIGOS decal. The decal files are available on this forum. Good luck with the build, best to go slow and get great parts, that’s always been my rule of thumb with builds.

    If you don’t mind… can I ask what you got for it? I’m always curious about fair market value since the prices for our ‘Cudas seem to be all over the map.

    Thanks!

    New Friday Share Day!!!

    Not too much interest from the Cudahead gallery but you guys seemed to love the chubby gal with training wheels… believe me, I’m a sick and twisted person from time to time… if this week’s offering garners as little interest as last week’s, I’ll be forced to comb the internet for *select* images that will grab your attention! ;)

    C’mon, let’s see those random, bike related, or whatever pics!!!
