Friday: seen on the street

Seen on the Street

Seen on the street: SS was kind of to snap these pictures of pretty blue Brooklyn Machine Works for me. I love the color with the white decals. I wondered what kind of messenger would be running a way old skool Selle San Marco saddle. For many pros of the 1980's and mid 1990's it was THE saddle: Indurain, Armstrong to name a few sat perched on the Rolls. Heavy for sure, but a solid saddle. I had one for a nano moment and then decided it was too big and went back to Selle Italia Flite. At the time, it was real leather (maybe even calve skin leather) which required a certain amount of respect in terms of up keep.
Brooklyn seems to be kicking out these bikes as I have seen many "Gangsta" out on the road as of recent....I even saw a pair of their pimped out hard tails rolling up 3rd ave. Pretty rare sight but cool sight: means Brooklyn Machines Works is doing OK....and who does not want BMW to be rocking? Joe is cool and deserves a little wind at his back. (Note: not sure Joe would appreciate the roadie reference since he is a die hard big tire guy.)
