Sharm el Sheikh, Egypt




Not one, but three butchered cycle trucks at the all inclusive resort we stayed at for a week over Christmas. Foot activated rim brake. I did see one other in town with an intact basket, in similar beat down condition. I also saw construction workers hammering rusty nails straight to be reused for a fence, which does say something about something. At least they're still rolling and working hard I'm sure.

I hammer nails straight to re-use them. Anyhow look at the bent left crankarm on the second blue bike photo. I bet the relacement spindle didn't allow the crank to clear the big wide chainstays. Too bad they didn't add a second bend to straighten the pedal out.
