Never ridden a bike but i'm building two of them now?
« on: December 30, 2010, 12:32:44 PM »
Hello everyone

Life is interesting to say the least.  I use to build audi's and vw's as a hobby and i got out of it.   Did a bunch of random stuff in life as hobbies and never felt right again.   So I started working on a tricycle.   Yes a tricycle?  It was free and I figured i mess with it.  It's going to be a long wheel base bicycle cruiser when I'm done with it so i can ride with my 3 year old niece this summer around the block etc.   Anyways... I've got a specialized tricross bicycle that I ride and i like to go to where the roads get hilly and i go fast down hill etc.  Like 45+ miles an hour on a bicycle.   I think when I did that this summer it got me hooked on two wheels.

So yah?  Projects?   

Well the girlfriend I think is allready finding me to be annoying about this stuff.  Honestly I don't care and i've only dated her for a few months now.  Needless to say.. she wants some space from things.  Haha.   take the space honey and i'll work on some bikes.

Bike one:

Cb100 (well it's just the frame).   I bought just the frame on purpose.   It was cheap and the way I look at things I'll just build this one slowly custom and from scratch. 


Bike two:   Well let me go get it first and then i'll explain what i am up to with it.

Both will be lightweight single cylinder cafe racers.

Even if I ride it and not like riding i have a funny feeling i'll be building quite a few bikes.

MTN DEW bottle randomly tossed on the ground can never be good. I'm guessing your wife makes you clean up a lot in the house and you feel you need to rebel a little in the garage. IDK I'm just saying.

As for the other dude. WTH
