I just touched down on the international runway. I am Back in the USA. Rock out to this awesome version by Edgar Winter's White Trash and get to building! The Headstart is about to end, I have a lot of catching up to do.

For example I paid about $80 for the RRB007 headbadge, but it was with the profit from something that I paid didley for. I guarantee you that by the time I finish my build, I will have made enough profit from other sales to make my build FREE. It don't get no cheaper than that.

I failed to mention how much selling bikes on the side comes into play, ps Welcome Back Kingfish !!!!

Kingfish is home... well, let's see him now get back to work, catch up on everything he left behind, and fight jet lag. Is he a threat... nope! :mrgreen:

I wish I could sell bikes to make build-off money. :(

I won't be a threat to anyone for at least a couple of weeks (or months :shock: ).

It ain't all about money either. Heck, BEER RUN was a rolling yard sale!

I spent money on paint today, it cost about $35, so if I subtract the money I've made from selling bikes and parts in the past month then I actually only spent... $35. haha Probably more since I give away so many parts to kids, and I've given away probably 5 rideable bikes in the past couple months and 12-18 parts bikes.

But you deal in a different currency with your bike ministry. You are richer than you think!

Haha, my builds are fueled by diet soda. This morning with my paint I bought a bottle of Diet Dr. Pepper and smoke bombs... all for the build. :shock:

You should use Coke and Mentos for a sidecar cannon.

Diet soda works better. Those things are so much fun

I will have some fake ordinance on there, but no cola and mentos unless I'm having a snack.

Probably a good idea. I can just hear it now from your sidecar crew. "Daddy. he ate the ammunition again!!!"

THE CLOWN IS BACK! (after almost 35 hours of continuous travel to get back to my home!)

I see that my R&D team (all of the RRBBO7 entries) have been hard at work the past 15 days coming up with ideas for me to "improve" upon. :oops: :P

I have had a blast between sleeping looking through the builds on a big screen again. There is some wicked work being done here, which is absolutely no surprise to me.

I am so ready to jump in with y'all, but it may be this weekend before I can get to my frames to make a decision on which to use. So, for now, continue on with the R&D effort! 8)
