[LukeTheJoker]

Thanks everyone, so glad it is working! I will do as you suggest DJ Bill, and please let us know how long till your housemate finally breaks down and asks about yours!

Yeah, pretty dry here already Pirate, so dry I got a thorn in the front tire apparently!

Luke.

Hot dang buddy that is SWEET! Now you have to learn some trick riding!

Awesome vids! Great job!

 

[LukeTheJoker]

Thanks Crash!

I have to fix the front tube and fit up the springs next, move the seat a bit and recover it, then add brakes, test ride and tear down for paint!

Videos are up!

First marginally successful ride:


Getting better:


It sure is fun, just taking some time getting used to it. Going to fit the springs up soon, that should make it far easier!

Luke.

This bike is an instant classic right here!!!
Your wife's giggle in the second video is priceless.

[LukeTheJoker]

That looks like fun.

It sure is!

Got another video. Getting more confident with it, went out on the road with no rope attached, much easier to ride...



As you can see, flies are back for summer...

Luke.

 

[LukeTheJoker]

For extra entertainment: got my brother in law on the clown bike for videos too...
