1933 Samsco

[kingsting]

My first attempt at a rat bike was this old Samsco-badged Rollfast. It started out as a crusty old 28" wheel bike and whatever I could scrounge out of the parts bins. I rode it around town today and got some pix while I was out. Now I'm not sure which one to use. You folks are better at this than I am so I'll use the top vote-getter as my entry. 8)

#5 - An attempt to suck up to the webmaster...

#6 - Thee Mile Island is in the background. I saw the fisherman when I was taking this but I didn't know he got in the picture.

#8 - My wife's modified 1972 Raleigh Superbe. For those who think the rat bike is ugly... :roll:

For you history buffs:

Picture # 1 is taken with the remains of the Union Canal in the background. This is the location where it joined with the Susquehanna River.
