Well done! That is my kind of bike.
man, we have pretty much a whole month left, and while i am happy with my klunker, i want to do more....hrmmmm
Would that be enough time for that headlight to rust? Nice looking bike. Was just thinking it would look neat if the headlight was rusty or the patina of the frame.blink said:
