Back home after a 6 day road trip north with a day and half hanging out with all the Skid Kings fellas, Tim @Tim the Skid, Jeff @Jeff the Skid, and Frank, @Frank and Pam Skid Kings, and the rest of the northwest folks, Justin @JRE, Rick @RidinRelics, Dave @Boris who surprised me earlier with one...
We hooked up with my friend Armando at Jim "Legend" shop this past weekend. Was looking for smalls for a project, plus just wanted to stop by and see Jim @JAF/CO. Thanks Jim for the goodies, and for letting us hangout for a bit with you.
Late, but thought I’d post anyway. My wife and I joined C.O.B.O.A’s St. Patrick’s ride this past Sunday in Lodi, CA. Getting ready for the ride the day before, we prepared our only green bike in our stable, a green ’36 ladies Colson. But then, I woke up to the sad news of our friend @Ian’s...
A few pics I took yesterday on a perfect and beautiful St Patrick's Day in Lodi, CA. A lot of fun seeing and riding with friends, which many of whom had brought their cool green vintage bikes for the obvious occasion. Much appreciation to those who organize such gatherings, thanks to Mike...
Woke up yesterday morning and received a text from Rick. Upset and very sad to hear about Ian’s passing. I met Ian at the Keizer swap meet in Oregon summer of ‘22. He bought a pre-war Rollfast fastback frame bike that day. I told him that I also have one, and that’s how we started communicating...
Another beautiful day in SoCal, seeing all the cool old bikes, and an opportunity again to hang out for the day and socialize with the SoCal vintage bike group again. Sharing a few images
Per Tony @The Hat, this beautiful green Colson turned 100 years old this month.
Digging Frank's...
A big thank to Mike @fordmike65 and Steve @Velocipedist Co. for putting on this cool vintage bicycle event. First of a couple of vintage bike events for our weekend down south, and my wife and I had a good time. Highlights for the day, was having Tom @TWBikesnstripes do a little of his magic...
Last year, I bought some bars from Mark @4scuda. He was parting out a prewar Schwinn bike, so I inquired about the bars. I saw that these bars had slots on them, which originally would have had a brace. “Even better,” I thought. What do I love more than wide steer horns, the braced version...
First meetup of the year for our local vintage motorcycle and scooter club. Decided to ride our vintage bikes rather than our classic Vespa scooter. Fortunately, it was at our favorite café in our neighborhood for a nice morning ride, a cup of joe, and to catchup with the fellas.
...for the love of drop stands on vintage bikes. That's me.
I’ll start this thread off with our ’38 Schwinn BC. When we acquired this lady in blue, named “Bonnie Blue”, from a good friend a couple of years ago, she initially had a Miller kickstand. One of the many reasons why I wanted this bike...
After several days of rain, finally some dry weather for a quick lunch ride...
...to the post office. "Let's ride our mountain bikes," she said. Mid 90s Specialized Stumpjumper M2 pro FS and Rockhopper FS
"Where do you want to go now," I asked. "Want some Dim Sum," she said.
Some bright...
Finally some blue skies and it's Friday. Rode some errands during lunch hour; felt good to be back on our old balloons.

This roadster's first post here. From our many visits to Jim’s shop, this CWC DBR ‘35/‘36, “X" serial number, caught my eye, original condition with wide cross brace bars, Person leather long spring saddle, and rear Morrow hub. Thank you, Jim “Legend” @JAF/CO. No cleaning necessary other than...
You may have seen this roadster before, but just wanted to introduce her. My first CWC DBR, badged Roadmaster. She could be a very late ’35, "X" serial number, but her features points to an early ’36. I’ve had my eye on this roadster since ‘22. Purchased in early ’23. Thanks to our friend Jim...
I needed a day like this at the Turlock swap, what looked like a very nice end of January swap in the middle of Winter in central California. So many to thank on this day. First, to @Jeff the Skid for hooking us up in getting us in. Two, swapping and buying parts from friends, Gary Quail for the...
@Tim the Skid, that's crazy cool; Mercedes will be so tickled. Look forward to hearing your latest version and seeing everyone again like last year. We should setup a "Time" where we can all meetup at Tim's space.
Went for a lunch ride yesterday, because we had a few errands to do. Why not, beautiful Autumn day here in town.
Love this time of the year.

Just wanted to give out a big thanks to Mark @tripple3. Because of my craziness for DBRs, we have talked about this roadster, since last year, her past and story. It was another reason why we went down to the CycloneCoaster swap and ride weekend just a few days ago. The subject was brought up...

First, a big thanks to Frank @cyclonecoaster.com for hosting. Having too much fun in SoCal. The fun for me are seeing friends/CABErs and meeting and talking with new folks for the first time. Communicating online and meeting members in person finally, like @New Mexico Brant, @Jimmy V...
After we separated from Todd and Robin, returning to our starting point, we were asked what our plans were afterwards. We wanted to ride to Newport Beach since we are here already, and plus, we haven’t ridden our bikes there before, I told Marty. We were very happy Marty @cyclingday and Mark...

Though a post was started here by Todd, @srfndoc, I'm also going to add on this thread since a few of us hooked up for a days ride.
One year ago, my wife and I went to our first ever SoCal ride, during the ’22 November’s CycloneCoaster swap and ride. We were back again for ’23. There were a few...
Epic day today. Thank you Mark @tripple3 for hosting us. So much fun with Todd @srfndoc and Robin and seeing Frank during brunch. Special thanks to Marty @cyclingday for the extending our day on two wheels and showing us around Newport Beach and Balboa island. More to come when I return home...
I meant to add these a while ago when it was for sale and sold. Okay with the seller, this fine specimen of a Schwinn Double (curved) Bar Roadster needs to be part of this thread.
Midday ride to the supermarket. Beautiful weather we have been having here in the valley.
Ian @ian, putting the saddle bag to good use. She's loving it. Thank you friend.
Local Stocktonians Armando and Frank, plus myself went to see our friend Jim “Legend” @JAF/CO over the weekend to say hello. First time when visiting his shop, I didn’t buy anything. But always appreciative Jim taking the time for us even in the middle of reorganizing his shop. Thanks Jim...
During our Sunday ride yesterday, took this for our friend Marty @cyclingday. This Sheraton hotel was also designed by the famous NorCal architect Julia Morgan, best known for her work on Hearst Castle in San Simeon, California. The Julia Morgan house is also here in Sacramento, CA.
