The Hepkat * I'm back!!

[Bike Bum]

I also came across this little gem under a bunch of junk.

I found this unknown frame sitting in the corn crib. One of the seat stays are rusted thru but the rest of the frame is solid. It's a skip tooth too.

 

[Bike Bum]

I climbed up to the top of the corn crib and found a lot of cool projects to work on. I'm starting to realize I might not have enough time for all my projects.

 

[RustyGold]

SCORE!

 

[Bike Bum]

SCORE!

I know right!

 

[Bike Bum]

It was -18 degrees a couple days ago. Ouch! Until I get a good gas heater in the shop, I'll be using my old pot belly stove. It gets warm but not warm enough to do any painting. I don't care, I'm enjoying the new shop.

 

[LukeTheJoker]

Wow, some cool projects in all that!

 

[Bike Bum]

Here's another project I can work on until it's warm enough to get back to painting. It's a 1939 Simplex.

 

[Bike Bum]

Wow, some cool projects in all that!

Yeah, I think it's time to thin the herd a little. Luke, I guess you guys are having summer right now. Just remember this, when you start complaining about how hot it is there, some of us are living like this...

I don't know if I should laugh or cry. Ugh!

 

[Bike Bum]

Alright, back to bikes. I found some more bikes buried in the bottom of the barn. As soon as this snow goes away I'll get some pix.

 

[GuitarlCarl]

Bikes keep appearing...like
More projects in the attic...like
Potbellied stove...superlike
Envious is an understatement
So much fun ahead.

Carl.

I would happily swap you at the moment, hit 46C (115F) today and our power was out for most of it...

Some crazy weather extremes going on at the moment.
100 year old heat records getting broken all over the south of Australia at the moment.

 

[rrtbike]

Those unbearable hot temperatures are why I just moved away from the Gulf Coast. But then, our weather man just said we could receive up to 20 inches of snow by Monday. Ahhh, I can't win!

Oh, That sounds rough, Luke.
