Dang, if I knew you were photographing all your stops on your trip i would've skipped dinner so you could drop by!
How was the bar-b-q?

Ended up doing so well at that last guys house we didn't have time to eat there!

Awesome start! I love the pictures and what a great idea to use a "year" as a theme. I cant wait to see the progress

That was a great show, nice meeting you. That bike is awesome, and it was a well deserved trophy. Is it original paint? I like bare metal (as shown by the Elgin I built that Gill brought out last weekend) but if that's og paint I wouldn't be able to do it. Gonna be interesting. Followed.

 

[Onewheelsqueel]

Just noticed, you won a trophy with a flat tire. lol.

Beautiful bike dude!

Sorry I'm late to the party. I've been crazy busy finishing up my first year of college. Plus all the craziness that the business brings.

For the first time ever, I got these two side by side. Brothers!

Then it hit me! I have the ratty seat on the good bike and the good seat on the ratty bike! Since these are the exact same model Troxel, both correct for these '41's, I did a little swap.

Finally on the stand! Progress this afternoon!
