Thanks for the good word Pappy! I appreciate your enthusiasm. it's been quite the buzz all right, just need to get more people signed up. Right now I'm working on gathering material to solicit an "in kind" donations from either a nearby "bagel place" and/or a "sub sandwich place" to feed our...

Ughhhh... I feel all icky now. LOL. Poor, poor Jon. Clark

Hey there Mr. 54shadow! I don't recognize you from the picture (avatar), but I'm sure we've ran into each other or know some folks in common. Only 1/2 mile away, you better be there... buying or selling, maybe both!!! LOL. If you're interested we've got a pub crawl downtown KC, in...

St. Louis is 3 - 3 1/2 hr depending what part of town you're from... straight shot down I-70. I usually drive it the speed limit (70mph) or 5mph over [shhhhhh!]. In fact, jjmunster (John) and I drove to Collinsville, IL (North of St. Louis) for the 2012 Midwest Bicycle Expo at the very end of...

Thanks Ian! Yeah, once we have pictures we can really move forward with the Facebook/Website aspect. It has generated a lot of interest here locally, should be an exciting time. Hopefully we can get our brothers from states nearby to reciprocate support for us as we have a group of...

Ooooooo... a 365 day "tear off" calendar! Me likey! Clark

Here's one of several pictures I took of the girls and their "new" bikes, I took them out-n-about around a month ago when the weather was still decent - working two jobs to make ends meet has me running a little behind. Anyway, this is the winter's projects. These were touted as the "before"...

Thanks deorman, This is making more sense now; I had no idea of the variety and nuances of tires produced, now and over the past decades! Geez. Both of my bikes are "ballooners". As I had previously eluded too, the Schwinn in my possession, has S-2 wheels/tires... Consequently the "507" I...

Deorman, thank you for the links. I had found only one out those four! Here's my next stupid question... sorry, I'm confused. <thinking... "I'm going to owe someone a beer after this inquiry"> The Maxxis Hookworm is one tire I am considering, most places list it as 24"x2.4" [or as a...

Woot! Thank you ratina! I like the original rims already on the bike... plus, it makes my job a whole easier and less expensive too. Clark

Re: 24" Tires... now with follow up question 10/23 Could someone please confirm something for me...? I was told that a Schwinn S-2 rim would accept any "normal" (non Schwinn specific) bicycle tire whereas the S-5 and S-7 rims would not (needing Schwinn specific)... I hate being a newb... and...
