Pick.
I ain't scared. We will just have to build a shed for all our bikes at a halfway point between houses. Maybe a good idea to build in some living quarters as well. :) I will start collecting pallets. :lol:
 
I am not gonna make the ride. I had a choice between hanging out with your ugly mugs or taking my wife on a date. Tough choice, but I would not be worth much Sunday if I spent Saturday night in the doghouse.
 
OK, I'm way behind some you of on getting packed for the swap but I'm finaly getting the trailer loaded for this weekend.

sold.... got any more?
hey wait till the swap...sheeesh!

Like I said before... I gotta make my deals when I can... Because I wont have much time the day of the swap.

I also have plenty to sell, but wont have time for that either.... Tim offered to help, but I cant put that on someone, thats a lotta work!


So.... if me buying a $2 fender, bothers you..........










Ill sell it to you for $4 :lol:
SOLD! lol
 
Marty: That sure is a sweet ladies Roadmaster in there!

Pappy: I won't forget your part.

Cameron: You made the right choice!

Judd: Maybe we should start collecting VW buses, that way we would have somewhere to live when we get in trouble. :mrgreen:
 
Pick, I think a collection of VW busses may get us in more trouble than bikes! But it would be cool. When my wife and I had just got married I found a 54 Cadillac I really wanted. She said that it would have to wait until we bought a house. So i told her "Baby, you can't drive a house but you can live in a Cadillac!" I didn't buy it. I would have been living in it. :D Isn't there an overpass on 254 nobody is living under yet?
 
For those riding the Pre-Swap Garage Ride... Bring lights! The ride will be on bike paths, sidewalks and streets with occasional garage and other stops. Approx 7 miles.

You are trying to get me to ditch the wife aren't you? Not gonna work, buddy!

The South Derby Bicycle Consortium is loaded and ready to roll. I am carrying Al's bikes and he is bringing his parts stock in his truck. I also have my assortment of bikes and parts tucked in there.
