kaiser SET say Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 Great clip of the big wheel Carl, my buddies and I used to do this Catamaran style on two skate boards. We would take big hills sitting face to face with each other while placing our feet on each others board ends and then controlling pitch with our hands on our board ends Talk about major rush So here's my latest Bike Tarheel, looks like the Hogs play you guys next 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sputnik Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 I saw this sweet 1996 De Rosa Primato, just my size, hanging among some crappy mountain bikes in a local second hand sports shop couple years ago. Full original Campy Record Ti group. Didn't even haggle on the price ($550). It had no issues at all but I did freshen it up a bit. New rubber, cables, hoods, leather seat, leather bar wrap, found correct pedals in great shape on ebay and presto - this bike has a soul. I laced up some semi-aero NOS Campy clincher rims (and a set of tubulars as well) since I took the pictures so it is now 100% Italian goodness.. This beauty comes to me when I whistle, pedals itself, and beautiful women throw underwear at me when ride by. I like the tramp stamp. 8 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sputnik Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 I used to at least slow down but it's just such a pain anymore when you get a thong tangled up in your derailleur. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
runninshine Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 I wanted an old cruiser, I found the frame and pieced it together. This was taken a few years ago at the Bonneville salt flats. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarheel Posted March 21, 2015 Author Share Posted March 21, 2015 Very nice bikes and photos Gents. I'll take a pic of the lady friends "comfort" Trek and my old 72 Flandria made in Flanders, Belgium later. My old bike was stolen once and months later while I was at a stop light a guy rode it across the intersection. Gave chase in the VW and later on foot and just before I grabbed the punk he threw the bike down in front of me and hopped a fence Keep the pics coming. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tarheel Posted March 21, 2015 Author Share Posted March 21, 2015 My old Flandia vintage 1972. Made in Flanders, Belgium. Retired to the tool shed. Doesn't look that bad. The lady friends Trek"Comfort". Notice the bell, drink holder, speedometer. Heavy but she keeps up with me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarheel Posted March 22, 2015 Author Share Posted March 22, 2015 Cloudy and cool today. Hoping to get back in the saddle. A couple of long rides the last two days. I know some of you have wondered about my sore butt (especially Earl ) I think I am getting broken in some and it's not as painful as the first few days. The Trek saddle is even harder than the Flandria saddle. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
