Now with 'matching' trailer wheels - sort of.
Met up with @Karate Chicken Industries yesterday afternoon with my '39 Firestone Flying Ace for a ride and hand crafted beverages at Wibby Brewing. We've known each other for years but never really hung out. We had a blast and looking forward to more bicycle related fun in the future!
Spring is here so I could ride this again.
Italian steel frame, japanese hubs, one gear, fixed. Rides very smooth and fast as hell!

On my way to meet @Karate Chicken Industries for a ride yesterday on my Mongoose I saw the police after a guy in a white car. He pulled over, cops had their guns drawn while they talked him out of his car & took him into custody without incident.
The ride was great afterward & stopped for a cask Baltic Porter and beef skewers at Left Hand Brewing.

Nice Build
Saturday and Sunday riding and local craft brews. When we rolled down that hill yesterday, Maurice's tires were howling. That bike is super rad and all of the gawkers at Left Hand Brewing were proof positive of that fact.Met up with @Karate Chicken Industries yesterday afternoon with my '39 Firestone Flying Ace for a ride and hand crafted beverages at Wibby Brewing.

I did not get a close look at that car/driver on my phone. I have a funny story about that fool to share next time we hang. Bottom line is that he's one of the wannabe gangly idiots around here with rattlecans, a severe lack of handstyle (Toy Defined) and he's not painting bikes with them.
I don't know what he did but the police response(half the force showed up, screaming instructions, etc.) seemed like it was more than just tagging stuff. It was an anger fuelled exchange.
Yeah, he tried verbally puffing up with me one night and quickly realized that unlike the cops, I have no rules of engagement.I don't know what he did but the police response(half the force showed up, screaming instructions, etc.) seemed like it was more than just tagging stuff.

I will say he was EXTREMELY compliant. His hands shot out of the window as soon as he came to a stop, followed every command to the letter & backed up to where they just had to cuff him & stuff him. 
This bike is officially shaken-down and dilaed in properly as of yesterday.
The World Championship stickers on the seat tube were removed after getting back and are being saved for a more fitting build. This thing flys and hurts the eyes in the sunlight.
On the way back, I ran into my friend who has the Haro SR-71 I restored last year and we are making plans for a pump track session,
