Two Wheeler

Wore out three sets of tires already!
I posted pictures of the shape this bike was in when I bought it from the original owner in about July. The black and white photo was taken the day he got it for a birthday present. It weighs 44 pounds. Probably more than he weighed when he was riding it. It's cool that he not only hung onto the bike all these years but the training wheels as well. He was kind of emotional when he sold it to me as the bicycle still means a lot to him. I have kept him updated with with progress pictures as the build went along. We are going to get together so he can see his bike again. The only changes I made to it were new tubes and one of the training wheels was turned around so that the pin stripe was facing inboard. I toyed with the idea of putting it back together like that but decided to turn the wheel around. If you look closely at the B&W picture you can just barely tell one wheel has the pinstripe on the wrong side.
