Cruisin' on my Bluebird
Was just talking to old timer Ed Boros who put on the bike swap in Oak Forest Ill. for the past 27
years. Ed is not able to do the swap anymore. He now lives in Michigan , but the swap is to be held at the I 80 flea market in Tinley Park Ill. about 2 weeks after Ann arbor. It is listed on the I 80 Flea Market web site but no date is listed as of yet. lets hope it gets posted soon..........
This swap could be pretty good. If its held during the Flea market, sellers may have a wider range of customers ; might be able to unload other stuff besides bikes. Maybe that old Disco clothing you have been hanging on to.....
Speaking of Ann Arbor Ed said ,[God willing] he has two tables reserved by washrooms at Ann Arbor. He plans to bring nearly 1000 old NAMEPLATES. If you need a headbadge, stop by Eds table when you are on your way to the john. Ed also plans to be at Memory Lane on Thursday.
Ed is going to be 88 years old, used to be a Schwinn dealer back in the day.
He has always been a head badge collector, and has plenty of good bike stories.
