Good riding to you for the summer. I'm in Iowa (USA) and am already missing out on riding because the weather is getting colder all the time. I woke up to 20 degrees F. this morning and winds have been blasting through the state from 20 mph to 45 mph the last 4 days. Gotta find my long johns and gloves.

Hey Bud thanks for the goodwill... Iowa isnt that where Radar O'Reilly came from? lol gotta love M*A*S*H, 45mph winds sounds pretty nasty stay in stay safe sweet huffy btw we dont really see alot of them down here i like it

Thanks, home made from $24.00 worth of plexiglass and some salvaged metal. It doesn't slow the bike down and protects alot. Next one will be out of Lexan....less cracking problems when cutting. I looked at your alblum pics of Blackie, looks like a nice ride. Wish I would have started with front suspension forks, but I guess I've got more bike builds in the future.

thanks lizard its my 1st build the forks are actually off of a Mongoose mountain bike. The guy up the road who put me on to these kits told me front suspension is a must but I havent ridden one without so not sure if he's right or not lexan is stronger than the pglass i guess lighter as well??? i really like the look of that screen i have a 50cc vespa knockoff that i ride around the city on and would love to throw one on that might have a go at making one now i see its doable... cheers
