Why the hell do all my pictures end up floating?

Looks like you got her done. What's the story with the coffee cup?

It was a souvenir from holoween a year ago,went barhopping with friends and a couple went one as Captain Hook and the other as Peter Pan. People got drunk and feelings got hurt and I ended up running off with it at wafflehouse dodging a pissed off drag queen wielding a dinnerplate. Now it sits only pipe keeping snow and rain out. Do you like the fender? Does it look safe?

Just a thought here. The front end of the fender appears to end where the seat starts. Is it possible to rotate the fender so the front end goes down further to offer more protection to other bike parts due to weather and stuff kicked up by the tire? If possible you might just rotate the fender so the rear holes in the fender will line up with the front bolts. I think it would give the bike a more finished look and save cutting off the rear of the fender.
I'm working from memory here so my idea may be all wet and there is lots of protection/shielding in the frame work at the front of the tire.

Tell me you aren't sitting on a piece of vibrating metal while you ride.

The metal does say "sewage" so there is a relationship there.

I would be leary of sharp edges though in a fast stop or mishap. Any temporary cover would be safer and undoubtedly more comfy.
