I bought this postcard. It translates from Dutch using Google translator:
"anyone who can still enjoy it, calls himself a happy man"

My newly acquired vintage "used to be high tech" mountain bike.
Proflex 657 Expert series.

I should of posted this last week, but my twin 20 month old grandsons spent the Easter weekend at our house.
They kept us pretty busy.

First up, 1940 Colson, this bike needed a lot of work just to get it to this stage, and needs a lot more work to make dependable. The frame and fork appear to be original paint, the bright yellow and green combo kinda of grows on you.

Second,

1939 Colson, completes my date run of 1937 to 1941 Colson bicycles. I want to thank Jeff (
mynameislegion) for the best Cabe experience yet. A true gentleman.

Except for seat, bars and petals, mostly original.

Nice looking Pro Flex, never seen a black one before.

Lastly, Colson accessories, again, a thank you to Jeff (mynameislegion) for working with me to obtain some needed parts to outfit my Colson collection.

Now just need to wait for some better weather to do some painting.

Also, got most of the pieces to add a ND 2 speed setup to a bike, just need the shifter.

radball bike, this is a pretty quirky unusual bike. radball or cycle ball, something like soccer on bikes. the ball is moved with the front wheel of the bike. it pedals forward and backward. im sure its a real wheelie machine. this bike looks fairly old. the game is still played today
