    Another Grand Trophy

    When driving past yard sales I always look over to see if there's a cruiser bike for sale. Picked this for cheap. May or may not do anything with it any time soon. I already have 2 Grand Trophies in my stable. Here is one...

    Peugeot Mixte & a lugged Ross MB

    Not real antiques or anything but still a pair of cool old bikes. It's a shame the front fender and the light on this one are bashed in. My other Peugeot is from Taiwan, but this one is made in France with Simplex components. I love the bars may have to try to straighten them. It is 21" from...

    old murray from show

    This one came home with me from the show in Mt. Airy. I have two other projects to get done first but then I want to give it a fairly meticulous over-restoration. Anybody got an idea on the year?

    The Higher Road Taken

    Here is one of my favorite pictures from my short period of residence in Wilmington. I may have to go back for a weekend soon just to ride bicycles around town again, and pay a visit to the brewery of course. :lol:

    Blogging and motorcycles!

    I've been away from the forum a while now , but have really been blessed in my life. I finally was able to talk someone into letting me drive a brand new motorcycle just so I could write a review on it. Now I just need to fix my own motorcycle and finish all of my home improvement projects so I...

    The Snipe

    She who must be obeyed asked me to build a bike. So I have to, she wants to teach our grand daughter to ride and the bike the kid has is way to small for a 7 year old. Since I had this Mongoose Sniper laying around it had to do. I just shortened the name, why? 'Cause I wanted to. So I stuck...

    Flea Market Finds 6-9

    Check out this cool little Murray tricycle! I've managed to determine that it is pre 1960 but that's as far as I can narrow it down. If you have a clue chime in here and let me know Also found this cool looking Persons seat. The pan and springs are rusty but the cover is in good shape. I...

    Great bicycle motorbike & motorcycle collection in N.C.

    I hope it's okay if I post this here. While working in Concord N.C. I stopped at Dennis Carpenter Ford Reproductions just to look around (I have bought stuff from them in the past, great outfit) and was given a tour of the museum they have there. The number and variety of bicycles and...

    The Damascus Roadster moving forward

    Aw shucks, I didn't finish the buildoff this year, sometimes life has to take priority over my hobby. :cry: It's annoying but there is naught that we can do about it. At any rate this project has come too far for me to stop now so keep watching this thread for progress. This years event is...

    Nirve Wheel sizes

    I was checking out the wheels over at the Nirve website ( I am hunting a pair of red 24 x 3 wheels ) and they listed the wheel sizes as 24 x 1.75 - 24 x 3.0, but no where on the site or the shopping cart page was there any place to indicate what width of wheels I wanted. Has anyone else...

    Life's a Drag PG2 the further evolution of Belle

    Dorr really got something started by advertising the bicycle drags planned for the show in Cleveland next month. Since I really hope to be there I decided to build something to race. So I went outside and found the lightest frame I had. This had been tentatively identified in the fresh finds...

    neat folder

    Here's a little Yugoslavian built folder I picked up over the weekend. With a little oil and air it was ride-able for a short distance :wink: . It'll need a rear tube and tire. Not worth much but cool anyway. This one is most likely swap meet fodder, but I'm gonna ride it a little 'cause it...

    Five Foot Two and Eyes of Blue Finished Pictures!

    Has anybody seen my love? And her ratty old Western Flyer? Any how the bearings in the poor old thing finally wore out so it needed some fixing. Being here in town without access to my palatial shop and all of its equipment I snuck it into the spare room/office. It was just supposed to be new...

    Merry Christmas Everyone!

    I thought I'd get a jump on wishing this great little community a very Merry Christmas. :D Starting tomorrow when I leave work I will be almost completely internet free for most of the weekend. Unless things are slow enough at my parents house for me to sneak a peek. Peace and glad tidings...
