Even though my wife says I have enough bikes, I still consider myself a proud member of the n+1 bicycles club. So I'll probably throw my hat (or a bike) into the ring for another skinny wheeled build...🚲 I still have a fitting frame and wheels for it, so why not... 🤷

I will need to fabricate a new set of fenders. The trailer got new shoes and those are a bit larger then the old ones and don't fit into the fenders anymore. But oh boy: Those Big Apples do roll much better than the old no name ones! And also with the new tires without the fenders the trailer...

And back to spiked tires we went yesterday... Had to ride to our garden after switching tires and took a little cockpit video And also the wild geese feel that the winter is coming...

I had to commute to the center of Berlin for a two day seminar. Took the Chance to put some more kilometers on the CobblestoneRat. 70 km in two days a 8° C. Not to bad... And cold early morning is a good time to take a tourist picture with only few tourists in it... 😉

The name would definitely fit the bike! :giggle:

Just came back from a 48,3 km round trip. A friend of mine wanted to buy a new project bike, but had no means of transport, as the bike was not in rideable condition. So I joined him with my trailer in "bike transport setup". The transport part was around 17 km. The rest is the distance to get...

Our new car is still a few weeks out, so I did our weekly shopping trip with bike and trailer again... As the IronPig has shifter issues that need to be addressed, I took the CobblestoneRat to tow the trailer. 25kg of bike plus 75kg of groceries plus trailer plus my own weight, I probably had to...

Yesterday I rode the CobblestoneRat with my trailer in full protest gear. Despite the crappy weather (cold, foggy and sprinkling rain) we were around 100 riders on our monthly protest ride. Screenshot from the video below (you can see me at 10 secs in and at 34 secs) ;-) And some more...

Having worked as a theatrical propsmaster for several years, I really admire the effort and attention to detail you put into this faux Bamboo and Tiki build! :thumbsup: This will turn out great! Can't wait to see the final product!

Maybe something like: 4 months Summer-BO (05-08) 2 months Winter-BO (10-11) 3 months Spring-BO (01-03)

Just to give an idea (or two) some pics I found in the interwebs: I think you get the idea...

In the shower I just had an idea for another future build off: ✌️ Double Feature/Two is a pair/Double Trouble 👉 Building up two matching bikes (male/female, adult/kid, twins,...)

Hey Luke, I was just wondering how it's going downunder. All good with you and your wife? How's the cottage coming along (and your workshop of course)?

The time itself (3 month per BO) is fine by me. The timing on the other hand would be better (for me) if all is pushed back by one month, but that would mean that the actual winter BO ends within Christmas and New Year holidays... Especially for the summer BO it is almost impossible for me to...

No big update (yet), still waiting for the new crank to arrive. But it slowly makes its way towards Berlin... Paketstatus: Im transit Land: China -> Deutschland Zielort: Berlin Herkunft: 2024-10-30 17:17 LIEGE, AVALON, BE, Departed from facility 2024-10-30 16:44 LIEGE, AVALON, BE, Arrived at...

Definitely a lot of potential here. Should/could maybe include trailers 👍 Probably to closed up for international builders (like me😉) Heck yeah! Loads of ideas spinning in my head all the time! 👍 Been there, done that! But could/would do it again! 😜

Not a bike but pedal powered... Me at age 2 on my brandnew kettcar! :thumbsup: (I'm once again digging into my family history these days and went through a lot of old pictures)

Another utility ride today. I had to clean out some leftovers from the basement. The stuff that t was to big to go into the regular trash had to go to the recycling center. The perfect job for the IronPig and my trustworthy trailer! That's the load to carry All loaded up Back home

Picked up a fine score: four 20" Big Apples for 25.-€ (35 with the S-Bahn Ride factored in) Now riding the S-Bahn back home...
