I saw this on the way home work last week and took a picture on Friday. It appears we have a Ghost Bike Memorial in Wellfleet now. The Ghost Bike website has been open but you can't add anything to it. I checked to see if it had been listed but it hasn't so I checked local news and found a 16...

Show us your Murals........... I have noticed in a few towns in New England that have supported youth art. At Nauset High School the entire gym wall on the inside is a beach scene that's just down the road. Young artists are inspired to get involved. Some places they just hire a local artist to...

It only took one year to the day to build. I mean I was still putting pinstripping on it while were waiting for Steve. This was one of a few Flat Landers of Ayer that was built for this years 4th Human Powered Vehicle Festival in Ayer MA. We used this type of bike for the rail trail in Ayer and...

This thread is intended for the few who will be going to the "4th Human Powered Vehicle Festival" in Ayer MA in 2013. Even if you don't ..... no worries.... this thread is for everyone. I moved it here from 3rd Human Powered Vehicle Festival I have been to the other three events and brought a...

Long ago it seems I made the Jua Kali in a build off here at RRB. It did poor in the votes (that reads the bottom of the list) but tops in the subculture vote when it took first with this picture of my neighbor and his two daughters. So I hacked it up for scrap today and saved the butt end...

I wasn't going enter a Photo but my Pug insisted. We saw several pictures in one post alone and I know your only supposed to enter one picture so I cut him a deal that I'd only put in 3 pics. Hope you like them. I like the last one but my Pug likes the second one..........no wait he...

Yup, I'm packing it in. I have been wanting to do this for three years now and KOTA has set me in motion. I was following a build from KOTA and saw he stole the chain guide from me and I gave some free advice about remote steerage (which he said thanks) and did some cool thing with chain rings...

My 87 year old Dad picked this out of the landfill this weekend. WHAT !!!!! ARE YOU CRAZY? Before you tear me up you got to know that I live in a highly vacationed area ( Coast Guard Beach listed as the top ten beaches) with a mind boggling amount of unoccupied summer homes in the winter...

I wasn't going to enter this contest so I could work on cargo bikes this summer. At least this is how I felt about it when I woke up this morning and up till I pulled into the parking lot where I met KOTA and Mrs. KOTA at the Cape Cod Canal Bike Path. I couldn't keep my eyes off of these things...

I couldn't bring myself to do a buildoff#6........to much to do and I didn't want the pressure so I decided to have myself a quickie build. I was approached by the owner of the company that I work for to help with some fun ideas for some of the retiring workers. Out of three, two are semiretired...

I saw this bike as I was pulling into the Landfill today with my Dad. I rushed through the usual unloading and rushed down to the metal heap to score this. Your regular China bike 7-speed Beach Cruiser, even my wife likes this one but then again she goes by color. Doesn't mater, It's a keeper...

I could be wrong but it's my understanding that Gdcast got married last Saturday. New house, new wife, new life. I wonder how long can we hang out at this thread before he finds us here :) My anniversary is coming up in 3 weeks and it will be my 32'nd. I have a wonderful wife who doesn't mind...

I got my new shirt today :mrgreen: Thanks Steve. Anyone have a pic of their new shirt? Post it here. I like it 'cause it doesn't show off my gut! Graylock

I found this on Instructables. I've seen this idea before but this seems better :wink: Graylock

So here it is, the Rat Rod Welder. There's not much to it, you can see lot of used parts here that can be upgraded from the get go or later. The mad scientist thing is appealing to me because I just like to see how things work so this may be to some a little crude. House business first. I...

.........wind driven snow, do you know where your Huffy is? Sure, on a road trip to The next town over. I got the 62 Huffy down off the rack and aired up. By the time I got to Orleans my front tire went flat, so I hoofed it the last mile to my LBS. The wind was light but still into the freezing...

"What is this I've found? " said my Dad when he brought it to me. I said I have no idea. Bare to the weather and made of Aluminium with all the welds smoothed out. Center pull brakes, 21 speed, dial in front forks, and clipless pedals. The frame has a kettle fuzz patina to it. Worth saving...

Here is a sequel to the other things you can do with squirrels. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VJpqvcCkZvQ I have a third video in the " Other Things You Can Do With " series coming soon. Graylock

I keep seeing these guys coming up with fresh finds and I've been coming up with parts bikes, nothing that great. My turn now :D . It came from Florida from a friends father who used it all the time and loved it but unfortunately the old guy passed away and my friend gave it (that reads freebie)...

55ColumbiaBuilt has a thread here http://ratrodbikes.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=33360 . It got me to thinking about my old boat which I just dug up some photos of. It's to bad he didn't start a SHOW US YOUR BOATS thread, he really started it for me. So here it is I hope 55ColumbiaBuilt...
