Butch,

Sorry to hear things are not doing too well. Hang in there buddy!

I have two Sugoi chamois shorts that I could send you if they fit. I'm about 32-33 waist and they fit me fine. They're clean. Send me a note if you want them. I should also have some parts. Do you need a 10 speed cassette? I believe I have a mint SRAM 12-27 for you.

Cheers,

Philippe.

[cfox]

I have a bunch of good clothes that would fit you, I'm 5'10" 145 lbs. PM me your address and I'll send you a box full.

[DRZRM]

Hey Butch,

So sorry to hear about what you are going through. I'm too big for you clothes-wise, but tell us what gear you need. I have spare tires, pumps, and other stuff I'm not thinking of (lights?). What are you riding, and what do you need.

Take good care!

Hey Butch,

I have a never used 120 mm Easton ea70 stem, plus minus 6 degrees, for a 1 and 1/8 steerer tube and 31.8 mm clamp. It's alloy, 2 bolts on the face plate.

Also I have a few jerseys that seem likely to fit you.

Shoot me a PM if you want any of it.

Barry

[alpsantos]

I also have a bunch of items to send including shorts and jerseys. PM me your address.

[Ken Robb]

I have some stuff you can use. Where should I send it?

[jtakeda]

Same.

I have some stuff I actually got from you that ended up not being my size.

Never wore them and they shall go back to you.

Hey, that's like my outfit except I wear a Tilley hat instead of a boarder helmet. :)

[rounder]

Sounds like you will be set for clothes. What kind of bike stuff do you need. I will help if I can. Good luck.

[TomP]

I'm smaller than you, but have a lot of spare bike stuff. Please let us know what would help.

[thegunner]

i don't have any clothes handy - but if there are random parts i can contribute to a build, let me know, i have a box somewhere :)

keep your chin up fixed!

[texbike]

Sorry to hear the news Butch. That sucks.

What size cycling shoes do you wear? Also, do you happen to know what size jerseys you need? It sounds like you would possibly need a large 4 or a 5 but would like to confirm.

[KidWok]

Don't share your size but do share your predicament. Hang in there...

Mrs. Wok actually hired an appraiser to review my bike collection. Don't know if I'm upset or flattered.

Tai

[mhespenheide]

What size helmet are you looking for?

Are you looking for a bike/frame?

Need any more jerseys?

KidWok,
I'm in West Seattle if you need a place to stash a few bikes away from prying eyes...:hello:

[Fixed]

Large helmet but I think I am fine with jerseys so much kindness here
thank you. To everyone
I got a cheap cross bike yesterday it is rideable
Cheers

[gasman]

I can send you a helmet.

Sorry for what's happening Butch

[Fixed]

Thank you gasman it was all my fault I have been hard to live with the last three years
Thank you for everything

Fixed,

Sorry to hear about this. I THINK I have some stuff that might fit the bill, but it is in storage (ironically perhaps) because of my divorce. I'm not sure I can get to it this weekend, but I'll try to make a point of getting there as soon as I can.

Feel free to PM me also, as divorce sucks and you should have a person to talk to.

Best of luck.

[jghall]

Been there, done that. Hang in there Butch.

Sure I have stuff to add to the cause. Can you list what else you may be needing at this point?

Btw, it rarely is 100% one persons fault. As they say, it takes two to tango.

[mhespenheide]

Tai

Tai,

I've got an empty small barn/large shed in my backyard in West Seattle. If you want to buy some hardware and lock(s), it would probably fit twenty or so...

Just don't try my wife's patience for more than a couple months, please. :cool:

Or if you just want to get a couple preciouses tucked away, I can put them in a basement side-room.

Heh.


More back on target, I can offer to send a new inexpensive Bell helmet that I never warmed to. Coming up at Christmas, I'll be headed back to my parents' house where I have an old Trek 660 in the rafters. Reynolds 531, lugged, 59cm seat/58cm top, paralell 74's, horrible rattlecan paint job. I could scrape up most parts (shy of wheels) if you don't mind decent old stuff.

Thanks Matt ,I am starting all over but I just got a bike , ex -wife has all my bikes and gear right now I could use some cooler riding gear since San Francisco is a lot cooler than Florida . I have been going though a hard time ,I am living with my girlfriend now ,having to train her about life with a cyclist .
Thank you I hope you are well
Cheers

[Brian Cdn]

Have some size 43.5 Shimano road shoes. Carbon soled. Used but still very ok.

Can send them your way if you are still in need. Canada Post can take a few days.

Hang in there.

Cheers

[Ahneida Ride]

Gotcha ya covered ! free HandleBra ...

send me a PM when ya need it ..

My Best Fixed !

[KidWok]

Of course...I was joking.

In all seriousness, thanks for the offer. There was another forum member that reached out to me with the same and I'm floored that two complete strangers would come out and offer this much help. Same goes for everything that people are offering for OP. Goes to show what an awesome community we have here. I've got my own place with plenty of space for my boys and my toys, so I'm all good. Thanks again to you and the other fellow for being so kind.

FWIW, I don't have 20 bikes...yet.

Half of marriages end up in divorce (although that may go down now that gay people can get married)...you might be giving away a lot of HandeBra! :eek:

Fixed has been around here a long time ..

It's the least I can do ... :banana:

[DfCas]

I have a pair of 43.5 mountain shoes I can send. Let me know if you want mountain shoes.

[Fixed]

I am touched beyond belief that so many have offered their support and kindness my way ,all I can say is a heartfelt thanks to all .
I will be back up and running and I will repay all the kindness I have been shown one way or another .the beauty of the serotta forum was it's sense of community that has carried over to the paceline forum thank you to all my friends

My rides are very short ,I ride on the fort mason trail everyday it is a protected bike path .I still have some issues from t.b.i from my crash three years ago , but the beauty of the out doors and the wind in my face lifts my spirit so much it is better than any medicine I have taken ,I am very careful I am riding a steel cross bike with 37 mm tires it is a tank but fits me size wise beautifully . I am getting more more comfortable on it adding that to my daily yoga practice has made me feel happier ,
divorce is a nasty business separating from someone you thought you would spend the rest of your life with is painful and stressful ,thank you to everyone for making me feel loved and welcomed .
cyclist are some of the nicest people around .I think we cyclist get a bum rap sometime for being cold ,I have never met a nicer group people ,much nicer than the yogis i have met and I am a certified yoga teacher with over 400 hours of teacher training now .
Thank you to everyone
Cheers

Hi Butch,

I don't have anything to offer you, but my husband might (I think he has some old parts kicking around, including some old Crank Bros. pedals) I work in SF so holler if you need anything else! We could meet up.

Hang in there!

Cheers,

I was riding out near fillmore and filbert yesterday and passed by a newly opened thrift store called, Fixed Pre Owned Cycling Wear.

Just kidding, I met up with Fixed yesterday and we had a good chat. He is as mellow and positive as he comes across on the site. We plan to get together on a ride next week so I can show him some of the neat alleyways, backroads and shortcuts I use to navigate this beautiful city. I meant to take a pic and forgot, next time.
