HI mARToons fan!

The problem with being fashionable is that – yes – you look cool, but often the fashionable stuff is a target for thieves.

A couple of years back I was playing water polo when someone from the pool ran in and said, “Your bike is being stolen.”

I ran out in -20 weather (with bathing trunks on, dripping wet) to find that my crappy old ape-hanger bike was still sitting there.

Another water polo guy ran out seconds later, and discovered his $5000 bike HAD been stolen.

Morale of the story: It may not help your repuration to have ratty old stuff, but the chances you’ll have it at the end of the day may be better.

Here’s to being UNfashionable!
