OK, I am tooting my own horn here, and you don't have to take it, so ignore me if you like. BUT check out my web page www.vine-ave.com. MUCH of it has to do...
Anne..the saddle looks like the old Brooks padded style! A friend and I both got 3 speeds for Christmas when we were 12. Mine was a schwinn and my friends a...
Mark..For me it's seeing the light come on (no..no not the spotlight) when a child (or adult) understands what they're being taught or shown.. The eyes light...
... Gah! I did not think Lucas perpetrated their form of electronics horror show on cyclists. I thought they just wreaked their horrible vengeance on drivers...
Ha ha Forbes, just to be on the safe side I do have a lovely 'Miller' lighting set in my collection to make sure the lights do stay on ;-) To my great shame I...
Hi Rich, I have a very distressed Brooks saddle of the same type on my 'to-do' shelf and out of interest I took it down to compare it against the Middlemore....
... I wouldn't count on it! Lucas....Prince of DARKNESS! Assembly is done in a Shetland Coal mine and they pack their stuff in brine for shipment! Why do...
The PPV is likely one of the MOST fun bikes I have ever had. I dream of taking a nice, warm and cozy "fun ride" with a female friend, a basket of munchettos,...
How do you fit the shady tree into the PPV Mark ;-) Seriously though Mark I must agree tricycle type vehicles are addictive. My Raleigh based utility trike...
Much as this is probably going to elicit groans, The Bob Jackson is going to a new owner on Sunday. I got the bike back in 2000 while driving thru a little...
... Or, howzabout, "This bicycle would make a much better plant holder than that lovely old Hercules you have in your garden. Please swap the bikes out, and...
Can I say WAH! I have a nice place it could be displayed!!! But you are right, I would probably be hesitant to ride it myself, as much as I LOVE old bikes!...
Mark, I feel your pain! I am pushing 300, I remember years back when I read in the pamphlet that came with a 531sl tubeset the weight restriction was for...
I can appreciate that as as well, for like you, I am pushing 300 myself. I have the body of a God - unfortunately it's Buddha. Thin tires are something I...
Wow - just imagine the space you have with only 29 bikes! The last time I plucked up the courage to count I had around 70, although I have managed to sell more...
... priest, but an Orthodox priest. He thinks my bumper sticker on my trike is a RIOT! it says "I have the body of a God...Buddha!" But my question here is...
I guess I'm the odd man out here. If I'm not riding it or paddling it or driving it...it can't stay. The Jackson had 53/42x 13-21 gearing and the old style...
I have even thought about taking one and hanging it on the wall of my living room, then making a pitcure frame around it. But you know how wives are, such...
If the club starts its ride from ellicott creek park it's a 8 mile ride up to the start of the ride and an 8 miler home after the ride. Grocery shopping aside,...
Interesting that you are talking about sidecars, as that's something that is on my project list. I have two motorized bikes (a 1946 Columbia and a 1980...
Wow, 70 bikes, and most of them in the house! I thought I was bad by having one (the '41 Columbia Superb reissue) in my dining room! All but that one live in...
I've just set up a new album on sidecars & have kicked it off with some pictures. The first 2 are of my c1937 Watsonian child carrying sidecar as bought,...
Everybody........OK, ....Pant pant.......i just got back from a show. I did a 4 hour Christmas program..2.5 hours of it was walking around and doing close up...
Excellent pictures Mike - an awful lot can be learned from nice clear photos of an original unrestored sidecar like your one. I'm not surprised at all to have...
Here's a few you might find interesting. No classic content though. http://www.oddwidget.com/~mnhpva/ice/ice2003/Ice6.html 2nd row, left. Tim Dunsworth's...
You do amazing work Mark. The sidecar you built for your friend with the handicapped daughter is a brilliant piece of design work. Thanks for posting these...
