Cruisin' on my Bluebird
I ride a lot - 5 to 10 miles a night. Here is the reason why...

What she lacks in hair, she makes up in muscle tone.
Penny at the end of her rope wanting to go in... I don't know why, it is only 110 degrees out here.
I threw this together with extra parts that were not dedicated to something of a higher priority. I thought maybe my daughter might be able to use it at college in the fall. If not, I could sell it. Turns out she thought it was "too beat up". Well for the moment, I am lovin' it. It is for now my go-to daily rider... tracks well, smooth and silent. I had done a little precision tuning earlier:

My favorite 1/2in drive hub... Perry, made in England. If you took one apart it would be your favorite too. Typical British over-engineering...
It's a bomber, right? ...Later vintage aluminum stem...
Smooth as silk... Later '50's "Made in Germany" front hub.
More modern vintage aluminum Schwinn marked kickstand.
