In the post-auto/post-evangelical era, bringing old bikes back to life is the closest us mechanically challenged can come to the joy of redemption. Or, maybe its just fun to get a bit of oil and grease under your nails, to use a couple of simple tools for a few minutes, and draw blood from scraped fingers. And then ride away from it all.
