I found out after this years Fourth of July , that our town‘s 4th of July parade Is for golf carts and BIKES .
It got me to thinking of building a specific bike bike to hopefully ride in next years parade .
I have a few old frames left from my yard sale days, most are either too big or too small for me .
I find it’s easier to make a too small frame useable than a too big frame , so I chose a Schwinn mountain bike frame for my build .
It being blue helped my decision.
I’m almost finished with it , except for adding white star decals on the frame , and maybe adding a Brooks B-67 saddle .
I have a 3”x6” American flag tag ordered to go on the rear rack , that says “ LOVE CRUISING” in white lettering across it .
Before the parade , I’ll attach an American flag to the rear rack .
Hopefully Covid will be gone bu then and I can enjoy riding in the parade .
