Oh, let's see. I love sunset walks on the beach. I love to lounge on a shag carpet in front of a crackling fireplace. Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens... you know... ALL THAT STUFF!

Oops wrong forum.

My name is Clancy and I live in Boise,Idaho. I just got back into the bike thing with the help of this website, Schwinn board and that darn Craiglist. Been pretty good with the buy/sell so far. 71' Breeze ($50) sold clear reflector pedals for 45. 71' Grey Ghost ($50) sold as project for $450.

Those above have financed my bike addiction and keep me in good graces with the wife. Since Dec 05' I have gone from 1 bike to 12 bikes.

My first Rat bike was a Western Flyer banana seat bike and one Christmas my parents put new seat and handle bar to make a BMX bike. My next bike was a Takara Bmx frame and I assemble the rest of the bike. In college my twin brother and I built a tandem , painted green w/tan pinstripes, and accessorized. It could haul 2 cases of beer in the rear baskets.

Here is my most recent picture from a great day of skiing. Both kids(2 and 4) won medals in their races.

P.S. cool bikes
 
nice. i do like your amo boxes...i like that they sit higher...and that they are the 20 lb boxes, if i had a smaller bike i might have gone with them too. im trying to get 24 inch wheels and 3 inch wide bricks, but i have to get rid of my wheels first..so if you have some ideas let me know!
 
I just get a Big Kick seeing those two boys with smiles on their faces posing with that Black Mini Chopper...I shur hope you made 2.. Life is good ! :wink:
 
I like the bike with the two kids on it, thats a good pic, I`m sure you get alot looks from people when you ride them around that way.
 
Greetings, Thanks for the nice comment. I am doing a green straight bar also. Love your ride! Great bike!

Greetings Mr Cman. Thanks for your compliment on my Chicago's Finest Rooling Steel! You were my inspiration for my G I Joe. The amo boxes make me want to fill them with Ice and stock them with a favorite beverage! Cheers. Dirtywater! I live just a stones throw away from you. Western Montana.
