I had to work on my bike after this.
It was due anyway.
 
It would be super neat if you could find paperboy bags to finish off this reliving of your childhood delivering newspapers, use them to carry groceries maybe.
Indeed!
I scored this Baltimore Sun carrier bag from Marty @cyclingday awhile back at a Cyclone Coaster Swap and have been using it to carry my lunchbox and work pants back and forth to the shop.
"Light For All"
Childhood memories and Imagination beaming from these rides before most folks hit the snooze on the alarm....
Hittin' countless porches with Light For All in FV, HB, NPB, & WM, often and repeatedly. :p

Service Rider H.D. Western Flyer
Rides really Well!
 
I'm truly thankful to enjoy this gift.
I think there is power in this bike; and the Light For All bag, that is beyond imagination.:D
Since my last post here, we wore out the rear tire.
Up to Monrovia, through the San Gabriel River in Feb.
Back and forth to shops in HB and CM
Up and down hills of San Francisco and Marin, including legendary Mt. Tam in July.
My personal record: Oct. 8, 2019, 120 miles in one day, 5:55 AM 'til the sun set in Sunset.

I love the feeling of taking an old bicycle and “giving it’s dignity back”. Truly food for the soul. Great to see you with your connection to your ride. Your enjoyment in riding the miles is an inspiration to us all.
 
Three hundred and four weeks ago today, this 1940 Western Flyer WWII Service bike was found by my buddy Jim.:flushed:
