Hello everyone, I hope everyone is well and working on their bikes! I have lurked on here awhile now and have decided to try my hand and participate in the RRBBO#6! It was mentioned to use this as a journal as the build progresses, so I must add up front sometimes I will run on and on about nothing and everything as it pertains to my build! :lol: For starters I am going to be 40 this year and I would like to actually accomplish something even if it is just this bicycle!
I am not into it with any ideas of victory mind you, I just want to have fun and try something different in my life! I can't weld or fabricate, but I am going to try this anyway, so far I am impressed with everyones skills on this website, from young to old, from guys to gals!
So with out further ado.......(however that's spelled) here is my bike. It's a Schwinn Tornado, I believe is a 61? Correct me if I am wrong please. It's a barn find, I came across it while looking at a barn that's going to be torn down at a friends place. I gave him $20 bucks for it. It's RUSTY!!
