Where is here?
HD good time today, COLD as HE Double Hockey stix, but other than that had a good day. Bought/trade with HVDave for the Shelby Airflow frame and sold a bunch of wheelsets and Fenders and, oh yeah even a front Stainless Steel raingutter fender sold, LOL.
Next year maybe the Swap will be in April, but maybe even that won't guarantee warmer weather.

Awesome bike there Stevil!!!
I wanted to go, but couldn't arrange my schedule to allow for the five hour round trip.
Instead I went to a local swap meet, a complete waste of time.
Next time for sure, live and learn. Looks like a good time was had by all!

Nice photos guys!!
Thanks for thinking of me Dan. I'm sure if I were there I might have been tempted.

I was drooling over this red/white/black one with truss forks and rack. i talked myself into and out of getting it twice. i was wicked close to crossing the street to the atm.
reason i left it behind was because i needed parts to finish the projects ive got going already, and not to get another whole bike. ( yeah, like that ever worked before :wink: )
im not sure if im kicking myself or not :lol: it was a really cool 24 incher though. AHHHHHHH :mrgreen:

So you like the Dawsons Ale KZ? I've have a 1938 can of it myself.KZ1000 said:
There was one bike there that Im having some regret about not buying and its haunting me. I balked at it since the asking price was double what Ive ever spent on a bike and I felt that if I was going to break the 4 digit barrier on a bike I better make sure its the right one :? I guess I'll just need to see if it shows up at Copake and make a decision then :mrgreen: Anyone else going to Copake?
Brian, I've droped 4 digits+ on at leat 3 bicycles, no regrets so far. None of them were old but two wheels is two wheels . First was a 1992 Specialized S-works M2 with full xtr & custom wheels with ti spokes and campy rims and some other upgrades that I bought just about brand new for $1,500.00, at the time I drove a $500 VW rabbit. The Moots was next and I must have over 1k in my Kona hei-hei. I'm sure my Dayton tandem will cost a bundle to restore but it's a family treasure so why keep track . Nobody is making antique bikes currently so they could be considered an investment......
