First, got this ladies Schwinn Breeze from my boss for FREE. I believe that it was his ex-wife's bike and has been sitting outside for sometime. He also has a 60s Schwinn tandem hanging in his garage, but he won't let me have it, yet. :mrgreen:

I'm not a big fan of these style bikes, so I'll probably clean it up, overhaul it and try to flip it.

Can anyone date it for me, please?

Then, I got this kids bicycle trailer from a freecycle ad. The fabric is torn everywhere, so I'll eventually turn this into a stakebed trailer to haul stuff at swap meets or to a picnic.

I also picked up this home-made bike repair stand from a guy in San Francisco. The guy built it himself. Found it on CL for $15. It doesn't appear to be very sturdy, but surprisingly it is.

And, lastly, I stocked up on some whitewalls, bought some greenwalls, one redwall and fenders from a new Raleigh bike that the LBS took off from a customer's bike. Just need to find another redwall tire.

The trailer will be a fun project, I did almost the same with one.I used plywood cut into slats for the floor. Reminds me of an older pick-up bed, which is exactly why I did it. :mrgreen: Later & PEACE!!!
