Daughter's Bike For 4th

[aka_locojoe]

Late yesterday our Daughter decided to join us on last night's Patriotic Pub Pedal. She doesn't have a bike and generally just rides one of ours. I built up a bike for her just for the occasion with parts I had on hand.

Started with this rusty old Schwinn ballooner.

3 hours later I finished with this.

Nice and Sharp looking quick build! Cool that you gave it to your Daughter
Now you have more room to get more bikes :lol:

Thanks guys. The bike will be torn down and stashed back up in the attic till a need for it arises again. This is the same frame that I've built up the past couple of years to ride on our annual Ladies Night. I kinda hate that I destroyed the nice patina.

Pretty quick work, but rewarding to see that picture of her smiling

As we are on the topic of 4th of July, this is my daughter talking to the news media about her decorations for her bike,

That was also my electra with the flags on the back that a friend was riding at the start.
