It’s way too fun! I’d totally recommend one! The flat handlebars and the 9 speed conversion totally made the bike. :)

Sorry about that… anyway, been shredding the mini! :)

I think my slant was only running on 5 cylinders, I lost a drag race against a Prius lol. It had enough power to blow off the rusty muffler. I got laughed at by all six passengers, there were some good times in that car. The guy I sold it to said the guy he sold it to still has it, and it’s been...

Mine was a 70 swinger spray painted flat white with the black stripe across the rear, and a black hood. It had a lowered front and a gutless slant 6 lol. I loved that car…

Omg I used to drive a dart! :) mine wasn’t nearly as nice, and my tail lights were a little different

I’m not really sure about up in king county, it’s been years since I’ve been up there, I usually order parts online or go to the bike shop in Hoquiam. I’ve seen a few of those choppers around, they are pretty popular here. I’ve always liked those.

My flat bar came in the mail today. I am totally in love! Way more comfortable, easier to control, and I think it looks cooler too!

Welcome! Nice to see another Washingtonian! :)

Well I have some updates… I converted from a 27 speed to a 9 speed, and it made the ride more enjoyable. I really felt like I was missing out on some top end, so I picked up a 69t chainring. It’s NICE. 1st gear can still get me up some hills, but 9th gear is monsterously fast. It RIPS! I’m...

I BARELY fit a 24x3 on my wife’s cruiser 1. It was on my cruiser 1 before that. Both bikes were 26 inch bikes, but the 24x3 looks like a perfect fit. Comfortable ride.

Dug out the mini the other day, made some adjustments. This bike rips! I didn’t even have it broken in before I put it away to ride my cruiser more, but now I love it more than ever, most fun bicycle I’ve ever ridden on.

That’s way too cool!

I learned the hard way to be careful in the corners. Not a traditional low rider, but it isn’t not a low rider, it’ll drag pedals all day.

Awesome thread! I’ve been on bike hiatus for a little while now, been traveling and stuff, but yesterday I did tune ups on me and the wife’s mini’s so this was awesome to see right before we go for our first ride in months. Here’s our bikes.

Saw these brown pelicans when I took the “Dinghleberry” out for sea trials. I took the close up pictures, my friend took the picture that has me in it.

I found this throwback pic! Chambers bay (the side with the switchbacks) 2011. Shaving some speed and preparing for a brutal 90 degree reverse banked right turn. I learned sliding before a reverse banked corner is safer and faster than sliding in the corner, and also “look ma! No hands!”

Well I hate to say it, but the sturgeon general isn’t a motor boat anymore, it was too heavy to tow with a bike, and boating by myself isn’t as fun as boating with friends, so I took the money I had saved for a trailer and got an inflatable skiff. I call it “the dinghleberry” :)

things have gone downhill fast…

Not me, but this is my exact board in the poster. “Five mile B17” My buddy Dan took 2nd or 3rd on it at the Maryhill festival of speed that year. I ended up having to work that day, but I got to go there with a small group of friends and test out my five mile widowmaker prototype, only it wasn’t...

I’m waiting on parts for my gravity bike at the moment, but my longboard trucks came in the mail today! I ordered calibers with a 44 degree baseplate and put 5 degree risers which put the trucks at a 49 degree angle. Kind of steep for most people, but I used to ride with a 52 degree angle so...
