...at 32nd and nicollet across from the metro transit bus garage?
it's a black and red soma (is the fixed gear called the rush?), mustache bars, panaracers, maybe 52cm.
i see it all the time, i just wondered if it was someone on here.
if not, so be it. this could be an ongoing thread, though, since i know we all have those bikes we wonder about.

I just saw jbl as he was delivering Peace Coffee to my office at the U.
That was cool. That is all.

PPS. The guy in the pink jersey couldn't fill out his manifest to the satisfaction of the manifest-nazi race judges, so jbl won anyway.
OK, that's really all... for now.

I kind of want to make this a sticky because it could be a kind of "Hey, I saw you(r bike)!" thread. What do you guys think?

Near Hennepin and Franklin a few times, I saw an old steel road bike with a partial fairing. It looked pretty cool. I've also seen the bike somewhere near downtown. It's a cool bike, anyone know the owner?

I'm fairly certain that herent posted something about it one time somewhere deep in the bowels of mplsbikelove about that bike and its owner.
Its always parked outside the Guthrie right?

You mean Bob's Java hut, no? It's there every day.
Yesterday it was lying horizontally on the snow drift,
while locked to the street sign. 
I met the owner of that bike the day of Bridget's recent
art closing, but his name escapes me now. He lives above 1x1.

Hi to the red-bearded tall-guy we saw biking west on Franklin yesterday around five-ish! It's just plain weird to me to get the smile-wave combo. But weird in a good way.
Also, we saw Deplaqer on Washington during the same commute
