Hello from cold and snowy Wisconsin

I am new to Motor Bicycling and after I built my first MB, a Huffy Cruiser with a 2-cycle China motor from Powerking about a month ago, I am completely hooked. I have been planning my next build before my first is even through the break in period. The weather has put a damper on my riding with 5 inches of snow. I built the first for fun and on the cheap but the next will be a little more planned. I am looking at the stretched chopper style bikes and maybe a 4-cycle Skyhawk Stage II. I really like the look of the inframe motors so I will most likely go that route again rather than trying a friction drive.
Later,
Andy

We now get pounded with a crappy summer in WI. After a brutal and long winter.
