Stationary Bike



New on audio from Stephen King...an unabridged novella"as artful as anything he has ever written." (Booklist)
Climb aboard Stationary Bike -- a streamlined fever dream of a tale, in which an ordinary household object assumes otherworldly powers and a familiar journey takes a terrifying twist.
When commercial artist Richard Sifkitz finally gets around to having that physical he'd been putting off for years, and his cholesterol comes back dangerously high, he does what so many thirty-something, junk food-eating couch potatoes have done before him: he buys a stationary bike, and vows to ride it regularly.
Unlike many a mid-life exercise convert, however, Richard actually starts to ride his new stationary bike. A lot. Soon he's spending so much time on his bike that he decides to put his artistic talents to use and paint a mural on the wall opposite his stationary bike. But it turns out that Richard's mural is no ordinary picture -- and soon his stationary bike is taking him places he doesn't want to go...and can't stay away from.
A riveting riff on artistic frustration, midlife mortality, and hard-won redemption, Stationary Bike is a thrill ride that could come only from the mind of Stephen King.

Motobecane Le Champion 1977





I found this frame without a fork in a bike shop in Pittsburgh, PA in the late 80s. It was NOS and I was told that it was a warranty replacement frame that had been hanging in the back of their shop for years.

Later during the same trip I found the correct fork for it at a bike shop in Albuquerque, NM.

I put the frame together for off road cyclocross style riding. I used Stronglight 105bis cranks, 1st generation Suntour Cyclone derailleurs and Weinmann Carrera brakes. The wheels were 700c clinchers with Campy low flange hubs. It had a short reach 70mm Cinelli stem and 38cm bars for a more upright position.

The frame geometry was a little too twitchy for offroad and I didn't care for it on the street either so it spent many years as a stationary bike.

In 2006 I decided to convert it into a wet weather beater bike. I put on a set of Shimano wheels with an 8 speed cassette rear hub.

After a few rides I realized the problem was the narrow 38cm bars. After I put on a 44cm bar it became a joy to ride.

One day I was chasing a guy on a carbon bike up a hill. When I shifted to the 26T rear sprocket I felt the sickening crunch as the bike skidded to a stop. I'd sucked the rear derailleur.

The Cyclone RD was toast and the dropout was bent inward 45 degrees. I carried the bike 3 miles back to my car.

When I got home I field stripped the bike and gave the frame to a friend who wanted to try his hand at frame repairs.

He was able to straighten the dropout and built the frame back up with the current components.
