thanks for the 5 bucks but you did not have to, you were doing fine with the welder just quit flinching! so this is what it looked like when I was bunny hopping to Halens jump only with a bike etc

I am still in the game and will post pics this weekend. I decided to change my handlebars. I am going to stay with coaster brakes for now but am considering changing later.

I can see a pretty bike at the end of my build tunnel. Pretty exciting...

And I must have caught the bug because I am already thinking about next year....is that a symptom?

:lol:

Good morning! Thought I would share a pic of the "Clean Shop" ( that is what I was told...honest) that was ready for me to work in this morning! Definitely funny....maybe JATS is getting a little worried and is trying to "slow" me down....muahahahaha!

Now this doesn't look too bad at first glance!


But at second glance!




Sooo I will be doing some shop clean-up this morning....of course, that means I can put the tools away where I think they should go...tehehehehehehehehe!
