Ha. The tubes were the final pieces to the getaway vehicle

Exactly right. My bad. Thanks for the reminder. Geography and majority opinions in the area were coloring my perspective but are not relevant

I’d have guessed white nationalist if it was anywhere but a bike shop

Speaking as a former kid of rural america you would be doing the lords work, friend

I was at the bike shop a few weeks back and a ghost walked in. He came in wearing a medical mask covered by a bandana, sunglasses, cap. They wore gloves, long sleaved pants and shirt.

First question from staff, ‘this a robbery?’

Ghost, ‘no, I just need 27 2.5 tubes, miss.’

They get the tubes, he agrees. Staff asks if he has an account. Ghost says, “nope, why would I need one?” Staff says they do it for records, insurance claim assist, and discounts. Ghost goes with a John Doe, pays cash and peaces the fuck out.

Total King, but dude was given up a lot. Half of us were drinking beers enjoying a warm evening in spring. I hope he has had some good rides.

I can say with confidence thay he was a white male. In his 50s. About 5’10". 140 lbs-ish. If anyone wants to get any tips, good luck!
