RatRodBikes,
My name is Jeff aka Rudy Rude. I'm a musician, and singer for a band called the Sixty Second Quickies http://www.myspace.com/the62quickies & the Unlucky Stars http://www.myspace.com/theunluckystars, into ska, punk and rock & roll & a bike enthusist since '73 when I received an Orange Krate for my birthday. I've owned several nearly one of a kind bikes. Aside from the sweet Krate, I got into BMX and owned a '79 looptail 20" Quadangle, and later a 20" Nomura - ultra rare now! Both were completely tricked out. I spent around $1750.00 (in 1982 dollars!) on the Nomura. Unfortunately, both were ganked over the years. I still get into BMX / trail riding and own a 20" Wade Bootes model Trek TI-2. I'm also into RatRod / Chopper Bikes and plan to enter Build off #5 with a 20" chopper that I've put together. I'm just getting started on a 26"/24" chopper...I may enter this one instead, if I can get it done in time. I've also recently rat refurbed a '42 26" Shelby Traveler, which I feel turned out pretty sweet. I kept it sweet, simple & rat. Good to stumble across this site! All the best, Rudy
