he questioning began. "Where are you going?" "What were you doing in Colorado Springs?" "What is this used for?" Um, OK...I answered the questions and was told this was a reportable offense.

After they photocopied my ID and held me a bit longer, I was told I was free to go and that I would be receiving a letter from TSA letting me know how much I would be fined. WHAT?!? You must be joking. At this point I was still so upset about my broken bike frame that they could ahve thrown me in jail and I wouldn't have given a shit. So I'm going to be fined anywhere from $10 to $500 and I'll be damned if I pay $1 over $10. I'm a threat to homeland security!
