Ok, you guys are killing me. I see some fantastic stuff brewing! Can't wait to see this run the course and we haven't even started.
Is it time for the RRB 'summer' build off yet?
Current state of the BACK40 bike shed. 10" of snow in the past 15 hours and counting....

Right now the only snow we have in NC is the yellow-green pine pollen all over everything!

Did some Spring cleaning on Monday when it was 67°. Forgot to bring the Beer Boy Delivery in from the BACK40 porch.
The beer's cold....

Much more anticipation for this one than we have seen for the last couple I think!

Looking forward to seeing that on a bike!I spent an hour on the TIG today, just getting the settings sorted took the most time, these inverter, pulse, AC/DC TIG's are far more complicated than what I learnt on 20 years ago!
I'm not quiet stacking dimes, but better than what is on most lower end bikes these days...
Another practice session or two and then bring on the build-off!
I'm going to create a multi speed, variable riding position, with adjustable stance, tires, seat and bars thread. And, have fun for four months throwing parts at a Schwinn Spitfire and see what sticks. All the while running a commentary on the state of Gerty and Marigold's affairs and the complications that Tom must solve racing the Thunderbolt Grease Slapper...

Don't know what I'm doing, gonna do it anyway.
Possibly, still working on my truck. I'll finish it before I start something else .

I'm definitely going to participate. Class 2 for me, as the classic bikes in my area are either boucou bucks or scrap metal. Most of my custom bike builds have an old school flavor anyways

Like “RadioFlyer”
Got my official RRBBO#14 shirt ordered today.

I’m in. (how have I not seen this thread until today?) (I lurk more than I post)
Using a factory frame for the first time (vs. scratch.) I’m 1 for 3 in finishing, always said I needed to start with a real frame to up my odds. Got one for Christmas and haven’t had time nor weather to work on it. Looking forward to seeing all the builds.
... to the T-shirt store!

Cool shirt, ain't no way I'm paying $33 to have one sent to me though. You need to hook up with a silkscreener that can make you shirts for $5-$6 and sell them for $15 instead of these online services that make $20 profit per shirt.
