Hey guys! I've been fixing and maintaining bikes for a few years now, but this past year was the first time I got in to actually building bikes. I've built two so far, the first more of a joke than a serious build. The second was a little more serious, kind of a cafe/board track style bicycle.

As I've been getting more and more in to my research and building, I've decided it's time to start joining the forums and posting. I may come off as an idiot, or seem ridiculous or even crazy... and I guess I am. I just want to do things that not many people have seen or done before. Maybe... probably because they're things that are considered unsafe or just plain silly, but I'm that guy that wants to do it anyway.

My most recent build has gotten me in to the world of board track bicycles and motor bicycles. My plans for the bike are to add a big motor with all necessary reinforcements, and have something that resembles the early 20th century motorcycles. I'm still trying to figure out the details of what engine, and how I'll be constructing and reinforcing the frame, but I've been putting in my study and research time.


On the other side, I love lowered cars. I owned a 1984 BMW 528e up until a few months ago named Ethel:

And now I have a 1999 BMW 323i:

Don't have many good pictures of that car at the moment.

Anyways, I hope to learn a lot more and get to know some of you guys and just look forward to learning everything I can! I'll try and upload some pictures of my bikes, but I don't think they're worth it, personally haha
