I must confess this one both bemused and depressed me:

http://ebay.com/<blah>

Perhaps the greatest racing marque of the 1920s, reduced to bike-boom junk.

Anyone know who bought the Gloria name after the company went out of business? They should be shot..

Although, that said, Gloria made down-market bikes in its heydays.. not as down as this though, I suspect.
