It all starts with a wheel... I picked up a bike this last month from a member, and have been staring at it for a few weeks now waiting for it to tell me what it wants to be...
IT is the right year for my tastes, and the right style... 40 Columbia. Will sit next to my 40 snyder...
So, as I tried to true up the crazy crooked wheels I started to snap spokes... went to the LBS and bought a box. So it's on now...
One wheel becomes two...
A bit of a tear down... ...becomes a pile of parts...
So now, its going, gotta make the time... Been very busy the last few months. New job at Work, spring and a big yard, play in on bikes, it's been hectic, and I start a class in the industry I jumped to a week from monday.
I hope I have the opportunity to finish it. Spread thin, but that's normal.
I have modest goals for the build. I need a cool cruiser that I can strap a case of beer to, or a cooler to and Go... oh, and I have to look kinda kewl while I am at it... image to keep up...
Sprayed a little white this afternoon to start the wheels off...
