Re: 59 Huffy Eldorado board track finally done?

I would be proud to ride that around town. NICE

Thanks! You guys in the other states get all the fun with the local swap meets, bicycle shows and stuff. we BARELY have anything like that in New-York so im one of the few who's keeping it alive for the vintage bike culture over here, especially in brooklyn.

There is more to New York that just the "CITY." I am up here in Oswego, NY, the town near Lake Ontario not Owego or Ostego. Also there is a few others spread all over the state and a few in Conn. that are closer than myself to you. They go crawling to pubs on their bicycles and there a swap in Monson, Mass on the 22nd. Someone invite this bicycle and his rider to one. Is there a ride in Monson after the swap?
Also is there a "Bike heck day" in the city in the fall?

I have to find those vents.
