Hello,

Thought I would start off my stay over here. I have been into bicycles and motors since I was kid, I just can't believe it has taken me this long to try and put the two together!

I especially enjoy getting old american bikes back into at least their former glory if not slightly better. And one old bike running again means one less sold at wall%!*#! That is where my heart is truly warmed!

This looks like a very cool site, I've been lurking for a couple months already!

Drive it like you stole it, brakes are for wussies!

Here is a pic of my first one I did for me (started with a $30 barn painted basket case)

I almost was going to put a motor on that, but I got some mo better ideas! I will be over on the board track area for that stuff!

You guys are going to get me into a bunch of trouble!! I know I'm free to exit anytime, LOL, Yea right!
