    This idea just occurred to me and it might be a fun game to play while goofing off on the forum when we should be working:

    On The Washington DC Craigslist Bike Ads Section there is a “Rhode Gear Flickstand”. First person to reply with the ad URL wins!

    • Prizes include:
      • A warm handshake
      • Bragging rights
      • Admiration from your peers
    • You won’t find it by doing a search for “flickstand”

    And….GO!

    Ok, I’m upping the prize to two beers on me at the next third Thursday happy hour on Sep 20.

    Well, I now have to work late at the shop because I just spent a frigg’n hour searching for that thing….. sad thing is I actually used to have one! Sooo. I gave up after hitting the last page and still not spotting it…. did I say I hate this game?

    This bike has one. I don’t need no stinking hints. But I did have to use the interweb to figure out the meaning of flickstand.

    So, Jopamora I owe you two beers. I’ll do another scavenger hunt sometime soon, maybe with a bigger prize and a more obscure hint (that “vienna” one did kind of narrow it down too much).

    It’s cool. I probably won’t be able to make a happy hour get together for quite a while.

    This thread was the first I had heard of a flickstand too.
