What bike did you ride today?

[Manhrs]

I drove from AZ where it was 105 degrees to Lancaster CA . I picked up this 52 Hornet and this 59 Wasp from Bird . By the evening I was riding the Boardwalk at Huntington Beach with a cool 70 degrees . I couldn’t ask for a better day . The CABE made this possible.

Became happy owner of this 47 Zephyr in May and just finished the overhaul/cleanup. This morning, a slow test cruise around the neighborhood. Got my wife and son to commit to an after dark ride tonight to put the Delta to good use!

Put the stock forks ( had factory NOS chrome on before) on the Red Phantom, threw some red blocks on the stock pedals, then went for a rip around the hood. Got the generator and headlight and Sputnik tail light on the '67 CCM Centennial bike too. Then tucked part of the herd in for the night.

Rode the '55 Vette today to run some errands. Needed the milk crate to haul stuff both to and from the Amish Market.

Caught up with Wade and did our 12 mile tour.

Have you ever had the feeling that you were being watched?

Brought home some "Ho-Ho" cookies from the market.

Great ride

Great ride

Like deja vu - I've done the milk crate thing with my '55 Vette also, but I don't have a rear rack, so on the front. Kind of messes with the steering when you put a bunch of weight in there. I love seeing bikes used for utility, and general living!

Beautiful night at the Outsiders car cruise in St. Charles last night. Great turnout with some sweet cars! The 55 Straightbar got a lot of attention.View attachment 1044325

Looks like that Ford coupe eats Volkswagens for dinner.

Y'all have some quality trash up there.

I'll say. The man is lucky.

Took the Duralium out on a strictly pleasure ride. About 13 miles. Not very far, but it was cut short (more on that below). This time I stopped for a few pics.

On the way back I got a flat, and it was my own dumb fault. I had the brilliant idea to true the rear wheel in the frame, with tire mounted, as it's running very little clearance between the stays, with the 26" conversion. I don't do a lot of truing, but enough to know better. But yesterday I apparently didn't, and had at least one protruding spoke. Amateur. Lesson learned.
