Yep, not a good year for a lot of things, but I did okay with the bikes, we moved to a new home in the country, and we're all still healthy. All of my collections run the gamut and the bikes are no different. It was an eclectic haul this year.

Vintage 20s: 1950 Mercury G-41 and a 1963(?) AMF Roadmaster Satellite.

Muscle bikes: Scored a pair of 1966 AMF Renegades. The gold one is destined to be an Esso Tiger. Also found a 1966 Foremost Swinger in burnt orange.

24s: A 1967 Mercury II Fleetwing and a 1971 Schwinn Hollywood in violet.

Lightweights: 1971 Schwinn Breeze.

Middleweights: 1958 Evans-Colson Sonic Scout, 1959(?) Ross Super Deluxe, 1962 Schwinn Tiger (2spd). All three came from the original owners.

Ballooners!: My first balloon tire bike, a 1948 Monark Super Deluxe, and a 1953 Trojan Super. The Monark is an original owner bike too.

Miscellaneous and sundry: An 80s Skate Bike. Looking forward to learning how to ride this thing…

here is what i picked up this year.

After watching it for almost 6 months on eBay, and having a bit too much Whiskey in me, made an offer and got it 7 days later. Not set up and loose fitted for some pics. Currently in pieces for a clean and new grease. Definitely made 2020 a little sweeter for me

In 2020 I added a few bikes. 2 that were built were my Corona Cruiser Hawthornes. My 1940 CWC DBR, and 1935 DP Harris Flyer. I also started work on a wartime Roadmaster delivery.

This year was a big wind down for me, as far as the bikes too. Threw everything that was moveable into the truck for the fall Pennsylvania meet. Sold a lot of stuff, some I was actually glad to get rid of. Couldn't think of anything that I might want to buy until it came into view. This pre war Colson frame had me at hello.

This was a year for some horse trading, so a few bikes have found new homes, to make room, for a few new experiences.
All in all, I think we made the best of what could be said to have been a very unusual year.

Just one. But I love it. 37 Dayton.

Although 2020 was a crazy year for us all I managed to acquire a few bikes and in doing so I let a few bikes go too.
