Registration info for next Spring's S-cubed event.

Can someone please slap me and tell me that this isn't a vintage Troxel springer polo on a local bike for $25 bucks? Pics aren't the greatest, but the saddle appears to be white vinyl w/ silver piping and a small round reflector affixed at the rear. To my eye, it's the proper 'surfboard' shape...

Collected these swanky cushions earlier today. I love free stuff!

Seller is asking $60 for what I believe is a '59-'61 Schwinn Tornado (or maybe a Skipper) double-bar with modern updates. Pair of 26x2.5 Bontrager Hanks, one of which is red line. I'm thinking the tires alone may be worth the ticket price, but curious what others have to say.

I know these things are desirable to some ratters, mostly for the enormous chainring on the crank. And, you can't beat the price...unless they pay you. https://baltimore.craigslist.org/zip/d/columbia-exercise-bike-schwinn/7631382272.html

This was a build I originally slated for the WBO in 2018, but I never got past removing the saddle...how embarrassing. Anywho...the bike has been sitting in the queue for five years, awaiting another chance to shine. Same plan as the last attempt--cosmetics, with a few subtle updates. A...

WOW! How often do these show up?! Looks to be very complete, too. https://baltimore.craigslist.org/bik/d/belcamp-vintage-1968-sears-screamer/7607200386.html

I've been watching this guy recover car seats for a while now. This is the first time I've seem him work exclusively on a bike saddle.

Gang, I just got a message minutes ago that Ruff Cycles will be suspending their custom frame/parts operation in order to focus on eBikes.

Hey...the price is right! https://annapolis.craigslist.org/zip/d/edgewater-free-amf-roadmaster-speed/7577644106.html

I stumbled upon this HUGE chunk of cow hide simply laying along the side of the road yesterday. Pre-distressed and perfectly crappy! Guess it's a sign that I need to recover a few saddles.

I have a pretty good idea that these are the same two bikes that I posted about 15-months ago. Seller hasn't posted photos, but the description definitely fits. They were listed for $200 then, so it sounds like he might be taking a loss...

The organizers express their sincere gratitude and announce the date for next year's event.

Rob Jacob posted this vid earlier today, demonstrating the accumulation of wear that the cycling community has come to know as 'chain stretch.' Old news to many of us, but confusion still seems to rear its head from time-to-time. Chains don't actually stretch, you know...

Mark your calendars!

What a week for bike finds! Up for grabs here is a matched set of his & hers 1950s Indian three-speed racers--one Princess and one Scout. Not small coin, but I understand these are quite collectible. https://baltimore.craigslist.org/bik/d/jarrettsville-indian-bicycles/7381081221.html

What a delightful survivor! This one is so original it deserves to be listed on the CABE. But, I know my fellow members here are general bike nuts--this one needs a conservator. Only missing the chain guard and Rocket Ray headlamp, but dig that Packard swan...

UPDATE: Price has been reduced to $40 for the bike + an extra Hawthorne frame with stem and lucky 7 seatpost. Unfortunately, the head badge was already sold separately. :( ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Another Cinderella bike dressed in red...
