    Neptune parade is tomorrow. They never got back to me so feel free to crash it, i'll be on a brewery crawl. Oct 4th is Oktoberfest at Back Bay Brewing on Norfolk Ave (9th st) if anyone is going to be down at the beach.

    Hey, it was free

    yeah, I think a good cleaning and some WD40 and steel wool will get this going good. The SA3 speed seem to work pretty well but I'll shoot some lube down the cable sleeve to keep it smooth. New brake shoes and maybe replace the cables and some new rubber and it should be back on the road.

    Hey, it was free

    Got a message from some friends today that said they were cleaning out their garage and had an old Schwinn they wanted to get rid of and would I want it. Who says no to free bikes? Nothing super special but it should clean up pretty good.

    I suppose it could actually be the black somehow faded out to that color.

    Here it is as currently being ridden. Need to reattach the rear reflector. Got some plans for an artillery shell headlight. This thing has patina for days.

    ENIGMA

    In a pool full of amazing bikes, to me this was the coolest.

    Tandem to single rider conversions

    I think these were really built to be stretch cruisers. That frame just flows tight into that style.

    Columbia Newsboy Special

    Yeah, this thing is a tank. Almost rideable, didn't pick up a chain on the way home today. Torn down, cleaned, greased and sealed with Penetrol. Had a killer old seat i wanted to use but the top pan was too far gone. Anyone remember who was making the custom replacement leather covered pans?

    Been too busy to work on it. Need to check the calendar I guess.

    Yeah. Should be on the road by Tuesday. Wheels will still need some replacement spokes down the road and I think I have to tweak the indentions in the fenders to fit the Fat Franks. Hopefully putting the rear hub back together tonight. Broke of the lenses in the tail light though. Todd said he...

    Got the rear reflector housing off. Bike was originally black with white and red details.

    I've seen some really cool bent wood fenders on here somewhere.
