Dumped man sells his bike - and his girlfriend - on Gumtree

Bitter man selling bike he’s used twice - and offers to throw in his ex for those who ‘feel like being taken for a ride’

A rather peeved victim of a dumping has taken to Gumtree to sell his bike - along with the girlfriend who he says ‘took him for a ride’.

The South African says he is selling his Specialized road bike which his ex - who was into cycling - encouraged him to buy.

He wrote: "Bought this bike because my girlfriend was into cycling.

"She dumped me and I hate cycling. I've used in twice since I bought it. Apparently it's quite a good bike.

"I'll throw in some size 9 specialized shoes for good measure along with the ex's phone number if you ever feel like being taken for a ride."

Fair point, but the headline is misleading. Think of all the poor, sad buggers that have signed up to Gumtree only to find that they couldn't buy his ex-girlfriend!  40

He's not really selling his (ex-)girlfriend, though, is he? You don't work for the Daily Mail by any chance?

Well Rory McIIroy dumped his girl and never looked back, should have given the bike a second chance though.

You brought a bike because the missus told you too even though you don't like cycling. Grow some balls dude.

Stupid man, saying he would give his exs number!
I see she had a good reason to dump him. He should just get over it and move on
