The weather has been lousy lately but today it was nice so I took all the bikes out of the garage to clean it up. I took a bunch of pics of the lineup.
This is the garage before anything was moved. There was a lot of bikes outside that are not in the pics. All the boxes are full of wheels, tires, fenders, and 2 new bikes.

This is my Grandsons bike for future riding. The blue wheeled trike is his to ride now. The other trikes are for the flower garden if we ever get spring.

The scooters are so cool. The one with the big steel wheels is going to be redone soon. The others will get new wood floorboards. The wagons are also great old rats.

The bike to the right is a 1980 Sekine with Sturmey Archer 3 speed drum brakes. It was made right here in Manitoba and was one of the last bikes made before the plant closed. I bought it brand new 3 years ago at an auction for $42.50. Next is a 1946 Rudge Aero flip flop fixed gear racer. It is the first year that Rudge made the aero. In 47 they called it Rudge Aero Clubman. The bike is all original but the orange paint has worn off and the silver undercoat is still showing.

The bike with the twinn tube forks is a 1953 Humber Sports. The frame is damaged past repair. I hope to find a frame someday. The nice blue bike is a 1971 New Hudson Sports that I bought new 3 years ago at an auction. I paid $5 for it. The tires are mint old whitewalls that had never been filled. The bike shop had it in storrage since new. The brown(maroon) bike is a 1953 Rudge De Luxe Super Safety Tourist in original condition. It has a 4 speed Sturmey dyno hub and working lights. I bought it from original owner. I have 2 of these.

The twinns, 52 and 53 Rudge bikes. Both are same models and are same parts except the maroon pump and bell is missing on 1.

You sure have some cool toys! I always like the these virtual garage tour threads. You have some truly unique bikes, at least for my area. I get the feeling I could stand in the middle of your garage and just look at things for hours. I may have to start a thread showing my work areas and my storage.
 
The Rat Wagon. I bought the racoon tail at a garage sale.

My 1929 Eatons Glider 28"wheels in original condition. It has Eatons Bulldog whitewall tires. The bike is one of the first bikes I bought when the whole bike thing started 20+ years ago. Hundreds of bikes have come and gone but this one stayed.

There is a lot more in boxes and under tarps. Some frames but mostly parts. I am working on seeing a guys barn with over 600 bicycles in it. I hope he sells me some.
 
Wow. That is an amazing collection of bikes!!! Now I don't feel bad for having six bikes crammed into my apartment (seven by tomorrow night thanks to craigslist)....or for looking at an apartment, only because it had a garage, to keep the bikes in.

You could sell the rat wagons as grocery and utility carts in some of the more progressive and cutting-edge American cities, those were wicked.
 
Is the house next door to you for sale? Nice collection! Reminds me of my Dad and his hot wheels adiction.
 
Hey kids guess where were going for vacation ? a. Disneyland! b.Hawaii! c.Bahamas!....no were going to Winnipeg Canada to look at bikes... :D :eek: :) :? :wink: :cry: Unfortunately the family wouldn't go for it so I will Fed Ex my self to your house and we will Barbeque. but seriously nice collection I really would love to see in person.
