Shop Time w/T.W. Friends. Deleted your text. What was it you wanted again?

When bro joe works at a kubota/rental store….. it’s hard not to bring something home when it’s sitting in the lot

 

There's also a lot to be said for riding your own bikes that you know very well and what their overall condition is.

What kind of bikes? I have a few, several different styles..

 

My wife's is a Trek Navigator 2.0:



The bike hanging in front of hers is an old Schwinn Super Stock 1 that I should probably sell.

My old bike was passed down to my oldest son. It's a '99 GT Outpost. Not super accessible so a stock picture will have to do:



My other son's is a Trek 7.3 FX:



Mine is a 2014 Specialized Roubaix:

 

Very cool rides. LMK if you think about parting with the Schwinn, I will likely be interested. I'm an old BMXer and collect the stuff.

My 1986 General Fred Blood, even has original tires



I'm a Schwinn fan..my 1986 Predator Free Form EX when I first bought it and after I restored it





1983 Redline 600A..still deciding how to build this



I have a few others like this, a Makargi beach cruiser (promo item for Hubert's Lemonade), a Diamond Back mountain bike, and a 70's Kent with ape hangers

 

Interesting lawn ornament..

 

Good Saturday morning friends! Hope everyone has an amazing day

 

Those look great! I didn’t know people restored bicycles but I’ve never really thought about it either. I guess people restore everything, we’re just all into different things

 

@My Name is Rahl hope the house warming party goes great today

 

X3!! Let the good times begin

 

Good morning all,
I'm going to head out th o the old pole shed and work on the Corvette some today. I have a feeling I'm going to need a bucket and mop for the floor as heavy rains tend to wash a little mud n water in.
The bushing and seal for wifes truck came in and I got drivers made, now also waiting on a axle that came apart on my son's Audi.

 

I find it so cool that some people are able to hang on to things for a long time like bicycles or maybe a vinyl record, whatever...
@ABA180 , a friend of my brothers still has his Mongoose BMX bike from late 70's or early 80's , he and my brother have been friends since before kindergarten.

Edit to add, he and my brother both had those bikes.

 

I’ve never been able to hang onto things for a long time. I do have a tractor I’ve had since I was about 16 and a few guns I’ve had a while. I find myself finding something better than what I have and buying it and selling the old.

 

I never rode a bicycle in my life never even had one I walked where I needed to go once bigger saddled and took the horse.

 

Several years ago I was leaving for work in the morning and noticed my wife had put this old bike out to the street on garbage day. I saved it, and she didn't understand. I had taken this second picture years earlier. Now she understands and the first picture is where the bike sits now. My kids, I took the picture on a record high temp day in January.

Edit; this picture couldn't have been on that unseasonable warm January day, lol too many leaves on trees!

 

Oh the memories!! Haha good times

 

That’s awesome.

 

These two sold quick, the guy drove over a hundred miles to come get them

 

Thanks!

 

Cole helped put this broke board back. Hopefully I can paint the black soon.

 

North Carolina is as I remember it, beautiful and full of Tacomas.
