Lurker comes clean

[Geebear77]

Here goes. Geebear from Modesto, Ca. I am a bicycle enthusiast of many types. I have been designing a bike for over a year now, collecting donor bikes along the way. I have a 70's Hawthorn that has gone from Boardtrack to Gorilla and back. I plan to start my frame up build this summer. Pictures soon.

Thanks for all the great bikes.

Thanks, Fireproof. You and your daughter are quite inspiring.

Well, I often come to Sacto for the tweed rides (like this Sunday). I would love to go on some cruises too. I will try to drag Lancer with me.

First I took off the fenders. Then I flipped the bars and put the seat bolt through the binder. What the heck, I put a banana seat and some apes on there and called it gorilla style. All of them look pretty horrible. It will go back to better boardtrack version soon. Pay no attention to the unmounted microwave or the Chihuahua crate.
