Uncle Touchy's Back Roads Bomber (Revised)

[aka_locojoe]

First off thanks to those who voted for this bike.

I recently stole the wheel set and tires off my build-off bike for the Heavy-Duti I just got.
Looking through my wheels for a set to replace them with I decided on this orange set. Dug out some fat tires. I faux patina'd a rear fender, put it on and removed the wood box. Replaced the saddle with a more comfy Brooks which could use some weathering/aging.

You know I walked past the bike at the Bike Fest and on first glance I thought just another old rusty weathered bike.
The next time going the opposite direction I realized that it was Uncle Touchy. You really did a great job giving it the weathered patina look.

It was a sweet ride to start, but I really like it even more now with the orange wheelset and fenders. Perfect changes for this ride if you ask me!!!

Thanks! It's turned out to be my favorite rider.

Many bikes were built during the build-off, few will be remembered, this one will not be forgotten.

Just break out the orange spray paint for the truck's wheels, and viola! Looks great ! A very nice splash of color.
