Re: San antonio TEjas ! First Friday! Oct 2. 8pm meet up! I'm here Dirty, not sure if we will make it tomorrow or not. Trying to get it worked out, some stuff came up this afternoon. Hopefully we will be there.

That is FREAKIN' AWESOME!!!!!!! Glad to see that you made it. I've been a part of several of those rides and have never seen anything like that before. Sorry to hear that they had to call it early, they had to call it after the first day here. They couldn't even think of trying to start the...

Re: San antonio TEjas ! First Friday! Oct 2. 8pm meet up! Count me in!!

I've worked as a mechanic on the MS 150 between Houston and Autin several times and it was a blast, but I gotta say if you are going to do a MS150 on a cruiser you are a way better man than me!! Good luck, Hope it goes well with no problems. What route does the ride follow in La?

Re: San antonio TEjas ! NEW PICS from Blue Star Show added 9/20 The weather is going to be awesome. Between the houston street fair and all of the other cool stuff going on, it should be a really great day!

When I was working in bike shops we always squirted a little hairspray in 'em. Works really good for putting them in or taking them off!

Re: San antonio TEjas ! NEW PICS from Blue Star Show added 9/20 Looks like we'll there on Sat. also! Looking forward to it, been thinking about it since the picnic. Are we still meeting in the parking lot by Augies in Breckenridge park?

Re: San antonio TEjas, Picnic Rained out! Picnic is Sept 19th! Big thanks to Ben for the invitation. It was the first time to hang with everyone and I'm pretty sure it will be far from the last! Man what an awesome night, great food, great people , and night cruisin' through King William was...

Re: San antonio TEjas, Picnic Rained out! Picnic is Sept 19th! What time are you guys riding tonight and where do you meet at? I finally got a bike, been working on it for a couple days. It's nothin' special but it's a ride! I might be able to make it tonight, as long as you guys don't mind a...

Yep, that was it. Thanks for the help.

I read a post a while back that explained the difference between these and now I can't seem to find it. Which came first and what years did each one exist. I've found a Monark (I'm pretty sure it's not all that old) but now I'm curious about the difference in the two. Are they the same company...

That is one of the more beautiful area of the country. I grew up in New Iberia La., I haven't lived there in over 20 years and I still miss it!!

Thanks for the welcome. I definately plan on catching up with you guys at some point for a ride, thanks for the invite!!

SoCal Jack is right. If the head tube is thick enough, having it reamed out is the only right way to do it. I had an older redline BMX cruiser with a 1 inch head tube and wanted to use a 1 1/8 threadless fork. I reamed it and raced it that way for 2 years and then sold it and it is still being...

That's a pretty good one! LOL
