My Bike in an Article

[Gbrebes]

Good Evening Everyone,

My bike made it into an online motorcycle article. The “magazine” is called Rideapart, and the link is here. Besides spelling my last name wrong, the article is fairly factual.
I’m not usually one to toot my own horn, but I was pretty proud to be written about. The writer saw my bike parked on the street one night and left me a note asking to meet and possibly write an article.

You have every right to be proud, any of us would with a bike like that. Awesome bike, congratulations.

 

[Tony01]

Congrats Gilbert. #79
The plug for your bike at Socal Motor Bicycle Racing was a plus.
Thanks.

This forum is so slow I really dont think anyone would care young chappie.

I spam all over!

Any good posts should be welcomed.
8 days until you will be racing at Grange in nice cool weather.

I enjoyed the well written article and photos. I can see why the writer probably stopped in his tracks with your amazing build, it's mechanical eye candy for sure.

 

[Mr.B.]

Wow! That's great!!!!

 

[Velodrome]

Cool write up Gilbert! Always loved that build.

Way to go Gilbert! Nice article.

I'm late arriving at this party, can you give me the link as well? I'd like to share it with a wider audience.

Hey Ludwig, here is the link.

You don't hang around, do you? That's pushing on a good bit.

 

[Gbrebes]

Thanks Ludwig,

I give it my best. I figure if you don’t push the limit, you don’t know where the limit is. I usually wash out the front end and fall at least once in the day.

I used to run slightly soft on my fronts so they pushed early but with feel. Your bike might not work the same way though.

Wow, great work and congratz on the article. I love the front leaf spring fork. How did you manage to make that?

Outstanding effort on the builder's part!!! Great looks and clearly operates excellently too! Wonderful that your motorcycle was recognized by RIDEAPART!!!!!
