yeah, it's getting big again. and restoring old bikes is becoming a big thing. even have vintage BMX shows around here (im sure they have them elsewhere as well).
at this point im just waiting for a crappy remake of the movie Rad
Yesterday I was about to go for a spin with Red when it started snowing... :shock:
Not as much as in the vid below ("Taunus" is a mountain range north of Frankfurt)
but Red was not willing to leave the garage. :D
Wow, that looks so cold! We are solidly into spring, getting close to summer and already having 85F days. The world is green for us :)
Some new toys, The rat rod is from a friend that lives in England and the T2 is something I found while at the grocery store today, what a score both of them are!
im digging that single cab, that's cool

Definitely! 8-)
But what are the odds!
That nail clipper below the screen made me grin...
I have one laying around readily available at almost the same location... :shock:
I have to keep them handy or my wife and daughter will steal them and I won't have them when I need to cut a hangnail or torn cuticle :)
Saw this guy at the physical therapist:
Hitchhiker on the latest ride:
schwim you bastard. look what you made me go and do. and this isn't even all of it.
the rest of the order is in! ...you bastard... :)
HAHA, MY PLAN IS COMPLETE!
This is how deep down the rabbit hole I've gone down; an Alice in Wonderland-themed splittie:
Because I only have one Hot Wheels car (I suppose it's Hot Wheels at least) :roll:
and it's not even air cooled all I can add is this off topic post...
That was such a great movie.
Saw this while weed eating some bike trails yesterday:

California translation: i rode my bike up a mountain to smoke weed and was trippin' over this crazy ass colorful flower. :lol:
That made me lol IRL but sadly, no.

private trail? public trail?
Public but completely unmaintained by the forestry service. They simply shut down trails and campsites that fall into disrepair in this county so I do what I can to keep this one open.
huh, was gonna say why are you weed whacking it. do that in CA and im sure you would end up with a court date. :roll:
but you live in America and i live in Commy-fornia so... ...yeah...
From what I understand, they're somewhat lenient here but more importantly they're completely MIA. I've maintained these trails for 10 years without coming across a forestry service worker. I've used hand tools, weedeaters, mowers and chainsaws without issue.
I will say though that some toothless meth head stole my mower :)
here's how it goes down in CA. no forest rangers, no cops, no maintenance workers, no nobody. fire up a weed whacker, lawn mower, chain saw, etc, and one will jump out of the brush like a ninja to ask what you think you're doing. and that's how you end up with a court date.
we've got meth heads to, but they steal bikes not mowers. not sure most people around here even own a lawn mower any more.
Took Red out for a ride last Friday...
Wow, it really looks fantastic! There's something about driving your Beetle after a long time of not getting to. I still have my first drive video of Zippy and I watch it every once in a while to feel it again. I can smell Zippy when I watch it :)
the bridge shot is cool. very scenic 8-)
Got another for the cabinet:
almost bought that when i made my haul.
almost bought a mooneyes fastback at bug-in but i deemed it unnecessary sense i had already bought a fastback
there's a mooneyes volksrod i think im going to attempt to track down next 8-)
I've begun trolling eBay, which is dangerous. I try to keep my moments of opportunity unplanned while on my travels.
