  1. Saving Tempest

    Combination chain locks are a PAIN!

    Or maybe just the BELL ones. I have EIGHT bikes. I have probably cut more locks of my own for not recalling the four numbers...well, I have them saved to a card I can look at and elsewhere and I still have the tabs that come on them, the little red ones. STILL! I just put a new one on both of...

    Something I've been looking for a long time showed up!

    Probably doesn't sound huge but I went shopping at the thrift store for one last present on my list and found this for myself... I have been using this USPS cardboard box and taping it up for the longest time... ONLY $7.99, KILLER!

    Some major frustration tonight...

    I left Rosa by the sidewalk here into the night, and NO, it didn't get stolen... It DID rain.Not a problem normally but when I got out there to chain it up I found the top of my Delta Rocket horn on the ground next to the bike and the batteries of course had short circuited...and also sure...

    I've heard people saying they are out...never here

    I'm not in this for money...or whatever. I'm in because I can pedal. When I can't pedal anymore, I won't I suppose but it won't be life, that's for sure. So I sympathize when you say you are getting out of 'the hobby'. But it's not a hobby to me. It's my way to get around. Why get around and...

    Chicago native...yet another build story

    Tomorrow Fedex/Bikeflights is scheduled to deliver my Chicago Schwinn Cruiser. And I realized something. I've looked at Schwinn color choices for other cantilevered models into the eighties and it dawned on me that BLACK may not have been a common color choice at that time, maybe not until...

    Any idea who this guy is?

    He posts bike parts on Boise Craigslist and leaves a phone number, which always goes to voicemail. But instead of a name, HE WHISTLES! Most annoying because I'm not going to deal with Son of Whistler's Mother. WHY? Not even for braceless Phantom repro fenders for my 80s Schwinn project...
