Early morning after birthday party for my 6 year old solo ride to our local babbling brook while sipping on some coffee. 1924 Schwinn built Organized Labor Strike Hawthorne Deluxe, a few modern conveniences added for long ride comfort pulling the kids in a trailer. Absolutely hands down the best riding bike I’ve ever built.
I finished up the 1964 American for my sister and had to put it through it's paces. It rides as wonderfully as it looks. I do not have a slimline tank bike and this was to be it but once my sister saw it and fell in love I knew where it needed to go. She lives near the ocean so not the best conditions for a vintage bike but at least the coppertone always looks good even rusty.
Last weekend I rode my 1953 Schwinn Black Phantom around Gimli, Manitoba at the annual Icelandic festival. Weather was great for the most part and I bought some neat vintage photo's ( will post on Show and Tell) of a vintage bicycle shop in Winnipeg in 1911 at the Pavilion. You can see the Seagram's Crown Royal plant pumping out the Whiskey in the background from top of the ferris wheel!
It was a beautiful morning over here, so I took my 1911 'National' out for a spin.
It's a wonderful machine.
