Hi all, new here and looking forward to learning a lot...I'm working on my first bike in the basement this winter...MAN IT'S FREAKIN COLD HERE..Its a "boardtracker" built on a 1950's Hiawatha balloon tire bike wrapped around a Chris Hill CH80 2 stroker...Look forward to getting a few good tips!

Thanks
Dave "Redpiper777"

Welcome to the group Dave. What part of the state are you from, I'm near the pinky knuckle, maybe after it gets warm we could get together for a ride. Enjoy the ride...Kelly

I'm from the Upper Pennisula of Michigan and I bet it's colder here than there!

Welcome to the forum, eh!

Welcome to the forum, eh!

Who let the Yoopper in, I didn't think the internet had made it up that far yet

. There seems to be a bunch of us MittenMen here, I really think we should try to get a ride together sometime in the spring or early summer. sb bikes were you at the Owasso bike fest last August? I saw a handful of motobikes while down there...Kelly
