We got a new bike for me today… rather we got a used bike frame. But thanks to john’s bike building skills, a beautiful and warm sunny day and lots of parts borrowed from john winter bike it was looking more like a bike by the end of the day! Check out the before and after shots!
Quite a remarkable improvement in the bike between picture (a) and picture (b). Nice that you have a new bike, Cindy !
Yes, to the “build your own bike” set (of which John is a part and I’m happy to tag along!) just adding wheels, a seat post and seat, the thing that the chain spins on, pedals, is no big deal. Kinda like buying a bike then adding a bell. John got in a bit more work on the bike before & after Miles’s party yesterday, and now it’s nearly ready to ride!
Hi ya’ll, great start for a new bike. Think I’ll come up and try it out. What a cool adventure in bike-building. Dick and I took a nine miler through the backwoods yesterday, followed by a partial ride through River Oaks Golf Course. Happy trails.
Love, Dad
Cool new bike, Cindy. When will you get the handlebar grippy things? (technical term) Hope it’s done soon so you can go out and ride it! Can you believe I’m still riding your Trek from college? 🙂
