What bike did you ride today?

-
I did a maiden ride in my '63 Schwinn American Prospective "Klunker" out for a spin. I had to get use to the no kick/ side stand when trying to get a pic. I do think I want to change the bars to a moto style as suggested by @Captain Awesome .

It was a fun ride. Good ride
 
I don't know the year, Red Streak by Snyder.
I bought and sold this bike on CL 7 years ago.
It showed up at Vet's Cycle swap last month, so I bought it back.
Now it has the cross-bars (repros), Bendix 2-speed kick-back, and a drop-stand.
It rides pretty good, but will need some things adjusted or switched for me to keep it again.
I rode to pick up tonights movie at a red box.

@Sven That thing is cool already! Klunk - a - dunk! I like the moto bars idea too. What kinda brakes you gonna consider?

Out for some good light on the canal tonight. Been some killer sunsets this week. This one too. Contrail lit up like a paint streak in this one.

Took my new 34 Colson out for what I will call the first ride. Gotta say that I love it. Will get the seat addressed soon. So optimistic i did not even bring a wrench. Oooops chain fell off about 20 times. Still went a good distance for a test ride. I will be using the chain tensioners that I have next time. Oh and bringing a wrench. Saw a red bike abandoned then realized why..... It was a huffy.
