The bike mother load!

[54shadow]

My friend, Suburbanryder, a biker of the un-motored and motored kind, participated in the "Critical Mass" ride in Chicago last Friday. He then toured the "Working Bikes" shop. Working Bikes gives new life to old bikes and independence to those who ride them, in the underserved communities of Chicago, Africa and Central & South America. As you can see, there are some great bikes in the show room as well as piles of bikes in the back. Will post another video when he has it ready. Enjoy!
P.S. I am going up there next May and try my luck.

I couldn't go to a place like that and get the full tour, my head would explode.

First, I would pass out, and then, MY head would explode from sensory overload!

Oh, then, you might want to skip the posting that I am going to make tomorrow, the PARTS BINS.

Cashing out my IRA and heading up there with an 18-wheeler, backing it up and tell 'em, "load 'em all up," and then, I woke up ... dang.

Now I know why there is not any good old bikes left for a 600 mile radius from this place, it is sucking them all in to a a vortex there.

Real quick in the first video you see a BMX with tuffs on it in the attic. It got my attention.
