Are old pics permitted ??? It predates my joining the Forum.
Dubbed by neighbors as the Seuss-mobile.
I just wanted stokers and the kids didn't seem to mind.
Ages - left to right = 7,9, not yet 50.

edit: Do all little boys go though a 'stick out your tongue for the camera' phase?

Fathers Day 2017 at elder son's house, with sons and elder grandson, whose baby brother was still "under construction" at the time.

Second photo, a couple of months later -- Henry likes being a big brother and probably won't mind sharing the bike trailer with Erik for awhile.

Welcome to BF C&V!

This is the thread where your pretty mug is needed with your gorgeous bike.


The Cinelli Black Tie warrants it's own thread with close-ups of all the tube joins, fork, etc.

There you go, @Wildwood, updated my first post with a picture of me on my Voodoo Bondye on Treasure Island

I'll definitely do a whole thread on the Black Tie Build!

The family seeing Dad off on a ride. My wife also loves cycling but we can normally only ride one at a time at the moment.

The local newspaper was doing an article on cyclists in our town and wanted our picture. Here are Mrs. and Mr. browngw in our front yard with my '71 Robin Hood and Sandi with her Giant Via Mixte.

@gcpmsame Thank you Bill! You are always a man with such kind words for others. By the way today I reached out to the woman that gave me the Fuji Newest to tell her that I finished working on the bike and that it is back on the road. I told her that I plan to ride up to her before the new year so that she could see it in person. She was thrilled by the photos and very thankful that I did not forget.

That is a great photo and a true advertisement for cycling!

Long journey for me since I started here.

Thin at first, then huge when the meds (health scare) caused spectacular weight gain and now slowly sliding back into respectability.

Just have to stay on the bike/skis and stay away from the ribs.......

^^ @veloham your head mechanic looks very capable. And your Mondia is going to be a very hot bike when complete.

Cheers.

@Stevensb@tyler_fred; Thanks fellas

It feels like I have mentally stubbed my toe when I find him having a go at the paintwork with a wrench! But I like him to see his dad working on bikes and to be encouraged to do such things. Instead of freaking out I just get his bike for him to work on instead
