American Red Cross

[MattBiker]

Well I can't stand it anymore. I have to join in. This will be my first Build-Off. I have been admiring all the work for years. I have been a fan of the military drab green/blacked out bicycles for a long time. They remind me of the old Harley-Davidsons. I could build one of these, but I have a Monark women's frame that has given me an idea.

I think it would be cool to do an American Red Cross themed bicycle. Hope it hasn't been done before. The ladies and men of this organization definately deserve one. I have decided I am going to build a fictional "barn find". A "Wow, where did you find that!" bicycle. Of course it will be rideable. I'm thinking a white bicycle but we'll see.







I have fenders, sprocket/crank and chain guard on the way.

I love the idea, I imagine a little nurse's cap on the steering wheel, haha.

You bike will have to hit the field after mine has gone out there and made a mess of things! Pull this off, and we could have an awesome photo op together.

Really digging the light. Cant wait to see what you pull off

Yes great theme. Very original!! And you still get to dabble with a military theme at the same time, kinda.

Hey!! Another girl bike!?! This is the most I've seen on here. Hey Doc I may need some help!! Oh I forgot....Get Ta Building!! Peace

[ChrisMac]

A very cool theme, indeed.



Have fun with it.

There are still plenty of girls bikes out there, and I figure some men's bikes have step-through frames now days.
I will have to do a count to see how many there are this round.

I guess I'm a lover not a fighter. Ha Ha! Awesome VW!!!!!

Just thinking here, I have 2 WCC Jesse James choppers here, each one has an "iron cross" headbadge. Could you use take one and paint it to use as a red cross headbadge? Let me know, one's a spare.

Cool theme.
I like the ratted out barn find idea too.

Yoothgeye, if my history is correct, didn't the U.S. fight the Germans in WWII? Are you trying to get me shot?

Less competition

Haha, my military bike will have US stuff on it, but the blackout light is German I believe and I think I'm keeping the iron cross on mine, so it will be confused, but I was just thinking, it's still available to you, maybe allied forces joined with Red Cross? haha

We're all on the same team here. Fight'n conformity.

Haha, yes. Let me know though, don't worry about price, I've got stamps.
