    😂😂😂This is exactly why I avoid 2 wheel things with motors. I love speed!! Especially on 2 wheels. I'm hazardous enough to my health without a motor......🤓

    Thanks! Wish I could have finished on time for judging. 🤷‍♂️ Poor old thing has been buried a while. Super scary in turns & planning some upgrades to make it more comfy & not have to wear Depends at speed in corners. Got a Girvin fork a while ago for it....... Back to the topic at hand...

    I took my old Harvard out for Bike Night with 200+ others on bikes. The theme was "Stripes". My friend gave me a new t-shirt to replace the one that I broke......🤓

    I like the mid tube mount as far forward as possible but may not be enough for the rearward position. I like the stem mount for ergonomics. Tri-Polar approves in tank mount. Should be waaaaay easier with your setup. :thumbsup:

    I got my Brother & Niece rolling on their Stingrays the other day & managed to time a trip to the track for a few hours before thunderstorms popped up yesterday.🤓

    Thank you for clarification of the ... bolts you're using. I did not want to see results of an online query.:shake:

    I took my '55 Raleigh Sports for Bike Night to meet 200ish others for some fun.🤓 The theme this week was "Pride".

    Late afternoon cruise on my Felt Bandit after discovering the paint used on a fork for my GT was much lighter gray than I needed as a base to match the frame. 🤓

    I had a chance to take my Redline to Berthoud Bike Park for the first time for testing yesterday! It took a while to find the sweet spot here & need to step up my skills to get the most benefit from this bike. I look forward to more sessions here to really get a good feel for how it handles &...

    :blush::blush:Thank you, that's very humbling! My Dad used to brag about me being a highly decorated war hero:)giggle::giggle::giggle:)& actually turned down being put in for one of the highest medals available for being one of maybe 100 Air Force personnel on the ground in Iraq during Desert...

    Absolutely my pleasure Brother!! Enjoyed every minute. Even the parts that sucked and would do it again! :thumbsup: Blessed to come back with all I went to war with and treasure our fallen heros & their families. 🇱🇷

    Finally got around to addressing a front wheel issue on my recently built Redline Flight Monocog & becoming smitten all over again.....:heart: In remembrance of those before me that paid the ultimate price.🫡🇺🇸

    I took my '39 Firestone Flying Ace for yesterday's Old Bikes Club Bluz Cruz. Small group, lots of fun even though we took a silly route for a while not conducive to cycling. 🤦‍♂️ Stopped for a couple folks to get refreshments & soak up some shade. Apparently we were in the wrong part of town...

    Got back to "Roots" for about 3 hours. Easy to do when I have the place to myself.🤓

    Was really interested in seeing the beehive on this frame & subscribed to the build. Since the Oriole, beehive & X53 are made by Murray it make sense they all look good together. Really digging this so far & what better place to get ideas for when I get around to mine than following a Kingfish...

    TRADITIONAL 🅵🅾🅾🅻🅸🅶🅰🅽 - 1930s Elgin Oriole - 2nd Place (Tie) - BUILD JOURNAL

    I was thinking of using a frame I picked up a while back to enter the build off as well. Probably need to focus limited resources on other projects this summer so interested in this. Had an X53 fork I couldn't resist trying out real quick with a couple things easy to pull from the pile. Wish I...

    I was able to work in some much needed therapy at the Broomfield Pump Track yesterday. Haven't ridden there in a while. Probably the most technical track in the area and lots of fun!🤓
