[MplsCoaster]

Hey Everybody.
Cool shot Skipton! Have had that shot tuckin' into the wind myself
Thought only thing better would be to see your pretzel position Then you posted your videos, awesome!

Have actual "In Action" shots today Took a mellow ride to Minnehaha Falls. Packed with people having fun outside
Met up with some people that biked in for a BBQ, beers, and frisbee. They seems to like the Spaceliner so I asked if they wanted to ride it
Got this guy coming back going through the grass and acorn shells after a mondo ride.


I tried to get speed shot of Tony. Both got it fast, at least 18-20mph



They said they had a blast and a workout. Their bikes were awesome too.
Think this one was call "Hamburger Bike" (because of the bell). Cool Chicago Schwinn with a 7 speed

Tony had some large white Schwalbes carrying the food and beverage

Super fun to see some other people riding it. Then tried to catch the last light above the Mississippi

It was a good day. Thanks for looking.

Hey Everybody,
Got the Spaceliners out for a ride to Dairy Queen with My wife's son, girlfriend, and "The Little Guy" who has Mag Ray



Figured out that his bike was 12 inch (not 16) so he needs a little more growing time yet
He helped me tune it up and reminded me to lube the chain



He was cranking on that the little bike keeping up and trying to pass
We got my wife's son and girlfriend out riding for the first time on a long time



And the Ultimate goal: Dairy Queen
Everybody had fun and treats


Tomorrow, Back to DQ with my wife's Dad
Today was a good day. Thanks for looking

Been waiting a long time for you to post some pics. Sweet Bike, great in action Thanks for posting
Thanks guys about the DQ run (warm March). Think Skipton commutes with his so he's probably the highest miles
Hope more people are getting back out with the nice weather

Great job!

It was a perfect weather day in Mpls! 80F, low humidity, and really sunny
So I corralled my wife into a short ride on the Spaceliners

There's a big car show in town this weekend. Saw this Rat Rod Vette at the playground
Big honking 6 cyclinder with 3 carbs


Thought I'd like to get a shot of me too


Some kid on the swings said "Nice bikes". Thanks!
Fun to ride on the 'Liners again, Hopefully some other people got out today too
Thanks for looking

So since I took out the Liner lately but have been riding the Felt more,
I realized I really miss the Spaceliner (still have to fix the creaky BB)
I also got inspired again after Jackdaw got the chrome frame thread going (thanks Bud)

Unfortunately for a lot of people SW of MN (Colorado fires),
We are getting a fair amount of smoke in our skies
Lots of bright orange sunrises and sunsets




Thanks for looking

Mplscoaster came to Chicago last weekend and brought his super cool Spaceliner from Build Off 6

The bike is soooo fast it's hard to get pics of it
Here Oldgreaser (Rik) is pulling away for a speed run.


My wife LOVED riding this bike!

"This bike is awesome "


Pics of me riding the HotRodLiner...



Rik and Steve both took my RRBO5 bike BlueX for a Spin..









I think Steve has pics of Rik on BlueX
Three RatRodders and Two Build Off Bikes
