Tracked down a collector of sorts last weekend (i was checking out a 50's Columbia tandem but we couldn't reach an accord on that), ended up bringing home a rollfast and a box of stuff. Fortunately i have enough stuff to get the Rollfast back on its wheels for friend of mine.

The box of stuff i put together had some junk but also some treasures!, check out the mudflaps and OCC tandem cranks (?) BTW: anyone got the lower links and hardware so i can put my springer to work?
Then to top it off a friend calls with some bike stuff to get rid of last night, i came home with a nice stationary trainer (rollers), 3 speed hub "333", 2 other high flange hubs that look to be 70's skinny tire, 3 boxes NOS Weinman brakes, 5 speed freewheel, Sturmey shifters, some old brake levers, nice chrome seat post, 2 boxes Torrington spokes, a random fork and a Raliegh rear fender, old reflectors, and a Sakae NOS bottom bracket. He's picking up some kind of old bike later this week for me too..."its old, you know the frame is all curved..." we'll see.
