Re: rug rat ride along
some eye candy. it's my world sport that I have been riding since 82 the disk came off of a Bianchi if memory serves it wasthe first upgrade and i bought it at a yard sale for 2 bucks redid the rim and mated 2 threaded cluster pieces together with brass to get it working. I believe its a suntour disk and its pre 82 but have never seen another one. did the rebuild 3 years ago and all the stickers are done out of 3m reflective tape. have 1826 miles on it since rebuild

Re: rug rat ride along
there finally married!!!!!!!! the upper and lower positions are daily and with the tag-along positions. all of the bracket parts are from garage door stuff which is what I did before my career change, if any one is interested in a parts list just PM me. its a long ride!!!!!, but should end up with a comfort ride position ( just like my 80's? late 70's disk brake on my skinny comfort ride is not new) off to paint? maybe maybe not.

Re: rug rat ride along
OK here is what I have been up to, the trail a bike still needs the blue shot on the top tube and decals and clear coat for both then final assembly. polished and clear coated the truss rods and plan on a few more clear coated brass accents too set it off. with the duel tire sizes and stuff took it for a ride before stripping it down and doing paint, not saying it was a hot ride but the end result clearly shows were i road... LOL
