Farmall model H or M built in nearby Rock Island, IL.

Moline, IL which borders Rock Island is home to John Deere but their tractors are made in Waterloo, Iowa. LOTS of those here too.

Detour through Lincoln Park. Frame is too small for Abe, I think.

I've got a couple hundred hours in a 1946 J-3.

My girlfriend (now wife) thought I was going to kill myself the first time she was strapped in and I went to hand-prop it

Enjoyed running an errand on my vintage Trek mtb in slightly cooler temps this morning.

Like occasionally playing with photo apps.

Received from my son. Not classic at all, but a decent vibe for a vintage guy.



Ride on!

Breathtaking, isn't it?

Too bad about winter...

On a recent run down PCH to Malibu, road construction zone with sand buildup made riding skinny tires difficult.

Sand dunes covered the bike lane to the right of the k-rail.

Next ride, we crossed over to the "wrong side" and rode on the hard packed shoulder, still protected by a k-rail.
