Thought I'd post this over here too... Just finished the refresh on this 1960 Speedster for an acquaintance of mine. The bike really belongs to his father and he commissioned me to bring it back to life as a present for his dad. His father ordered the bike from the local dealer in Staunton...

I know, I know. Lucky guys still find'em... seems like a near impossibility around here though.

Oh, I thought of another very simple, modest, demure resolution :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll:..... To acquire one, just ONE previously undiscovered NICE condition, prewar mens tank bike.

I visited Antique Archeology in early October. It was a beautiful day there along the river. LeClaire is a picturesque, classic small American town. Like any town I'm sure it's got a few problems, but LeClaire represents something desirable and less and less easy to find in America, it is not...

^ This!

Here in the midwest it's tough each spring because year after year we have to "get back in shape" following the doldrums of winter. This year I'm working out all the way through. I will be a stronger road/tri rider in 2012. Also, I will establish an LLC.

Aww man, you scored a VERY nice bike with that Western Flyer. I don't know enough about it to spout off about the details, there are a few folks here that can shed some better light.

Wow! Winning the state time trial in ANY category is a HUGE accomplishment, and anyone who can compete and do well in criteriums is a talented rider. I did not know that Mr. Wolfe was that accomplished of a rider. I notice in the comments section of the article that Leon Dixon (of the infamous...

We're on the same page there brother! 8)

I know what you're saying, but I think it's a trick of the mind... We WANT to believe Mike is holding a bike in the photo, but he isn't. In reality he's holding a conglomeration of loosely bound oxidized iron particles and mud. It is shaped like a bike, and to us it looks like a bike, but trust...

I recall your late-night score post from earlier this year. YES, that's definitely one of the best ones I saw here this year!

Awww man, so envious!

That's a cool bike you scored! :D

What's the voltage and current rating of those toggle switches? I could use several to help trick out my step van...

Carrying on the theme of a similar year end thread, what were your BEST finds of 2011? Great bikes you just stumbled across? Maybe a desirable bike you garnered by beating everyone to the punch. Or, maybe one you've wanted for a long long time and finally found. Although pickens have been slim...

Cool story Jason, Merry Christmas!

Here's one for sale locally. The crappy part is... the person that listed this bike for sale WON this bike for nothing in a black-Friday drawing a few weeks ago :x http://stlouis.craigslist.org/bik/2734637905.html

Thanks for giving us the scoop! ^ This was my biggest point of contention about the episode. This particular type of "reality TV" is edited so that the "dealer" is placed in the position of the "expert" when in reality said "dealer" was simply talking out his rear. Lobsterboy, regardless of the...

Pickles.

Lol metallic McDonald's! Nail on the head there!!!
