Tiers, grips, and pedals brick red on a 1933 Schwinn motorbike rider.

Being the youngest of three boys I got to part out the leftover bicycle to keep mine on the road! It was 4 miles to my country school!

My old boy (1933 Schwinn) went down the “yellow leaf road”, to help me work off to much turkey dinner!

When a guy rides this 1937 Schwinn bike it’s called a “step through”!

Happy Thanksgiving! Join me in raising our arms to finally drink “shots”!

I found a “free veteran meal”, but I can’t show you a picture…I ate it! Go Army drafty, and agent orange survivor! Thank you guys for being here!

Never ridden! I’m too afraid of a chip, scratch, or fade to the paint. This keeps me up at night! So… for now it hangs on my den wall, safe from harm.

I put the wrong pictures for my 100 year old Premier. I took off the Schwinn front brake and added the bmx rear brake, a lot safer stopping. The ice cream sounding bell lets people know I’m about to run them over!

Tested my 100 year old Premier yesterday and had more questions about the carbide lamp from my neighbors. The rims and tires are off a modern “fixie”, and the brake is bmx. The kids I passed, ringing my bell, probably thought I was the ice cream man!

Went for a neighborhood ride/visit wind was up, leaves were coming down! Didn’t notice my roses until I turned into my driveway. Time to dead head! My 50/95 Schwinn mix is one of my favorite rides. The Bendex two speed is just smooooth!

Mike, I remember that 4th of July at your place! I remember the ride through town and the picture you took of us all lined up like “bikers”. My wife and son were 22 years younger! You used to leave your bicycle finds at my Turlock space in January. I didn’t recognize at Jim’s swap, if you make...

A few things from JAF/CO swap.

Yes, on the Columbia with the WWII wheels. I will have it at the Turlock Model A swap in January with more stuff. I will only sell it at Turlock or someone close to Turlock, Ca. Stay safe, Jon

Thanks Jim, wish this was twice a year! Sold 3 of my 4 bicycles and bought stuff I could probably only find at a swap like yours! Stay safe, Jon

See you tomorrow Jim, bring a ‘38 Schwinn Roadster, ‘41 DX, WWII 26” ballon rims with hubs, 1937 Iver Johnson Roadster frame with crank, badges, licenses, and pre war chain guards, and stuff?
