    Keep an eye on the bottom bracket. When I did track racing back in the 80s, it seemed like it was usually a Benotto that started a kilo with a loud crack when the BB shell broke away from the seat tube, forcing the rider to have to find another bike in a hurry. Maybe that was just their track bikes, but it tended to put people off Benotto bikes in general.






  • At the moment I only own two “real” bras and a handful of sports bras. The real bras are pocketed for prosthetics, so are quite expensive. I only wear the real bras for a few hours at a time, so I figure they can go at least two weeks. The sports bras get stuffed with one of the “knitted knockers” fiberfill prosthetics that I got in the mail a couple of weeks before surgery. They get washed right after being worn for exercise, prosthetic and all.
