What bike did you ride today?

Rode a crusty post-war Mead “Ranger” today

On my way to riding yesterday the guy selling this got back to me, so I turned around and went and purchased this yesterday, never did make it riding afterwards.

Basically looked like a barn find. Wheels amazingly true and hubs spun smoothly. After replacing the frozen chain, tubes, tires, grips, pedals and doing a light cleaning I took it out riding today.

Was amazed today to see this Eagle so out in the open and perched 20’ above trail.

I stopped and got off bike and literally inched my way toward him, every few inches I’d take a picture expecting it to fly off. My patience paid off, I got closest I ever have to one of these beautiful birds and also snapped the best pics I’ve ever gotten of one.I know I recently posted some pics of Eagles but I never get tired of looking at them.

I rode 25 miles today.

@RidinRelics ..Great shot of the eagles! Your bike looks great too.

Took out my Neatherlands bike ..aka "Dutch Flyer"

Checked on my snowbird buddy's house, while he and his wife in FL.

It’s not a Manton Smith , doesn’t have gas welds, it’s brazed. Not sure who made the frame, I’ve never seen a frame quite like it either.

Headed out for a nice between rains ride on my '57 BFG truck, and ran across a bigger truck. My truck wanted a pic with it.

Sprinkle ride to Kyrene. Clouds were outstanding tonight.

@RidinRelics Rick your bald eagle pics are great! I got pretty close to this fishing heron.

I took an extended lunch break today and took off on my 41 Colson. A few minutes later the master link spat the dummy and disappeared so I returned to work and grabbed my ‘62 Typhoon for a quick ride to the bay. Unfortunately no eagles to see here @RidinRelics but lots of beautiful birds of another kind!

What better place for bird watching

Mid day ride yesterday after the rain cleared some. 33mi. Gusty winds with light rain out on the coast. I rode the 37 Shelby Streamliner with it's fat fenders for the wet weather. Wind is only good when you flip it and get a fast ride back home.
