Thank you for the pictures. This looks like a ton of fun. What is Mrs. Non-Fixie's mixte?

Thanks for posting! She certainly looks like she would be "twisty" without the presence of laterals.
Perhaps our favourite naval vessel would care to comment... @CV-6

OK @non-fixie, most excellent report.
But NO ONE asked about the nun in full habit = Flying Nun-of-Flanders? Sister-of-the-Vintage-Chapel? Tom Boonen in .... nevermind......!
You could best put it in the pleasing local lingo phrase-iology
Pray tell the whole truth of the story.

But who am I to judge?
There's more to the story than I know.
BITD there was a drag group Sisters of the ________ (something)
But those were San Francisco area days.

The upside is of course, that you now have an excuse to build an even nicer one.

Yes, it was the frame I built myself. Already thinking of building a new one, a Paulkal Super Speciale.
