Hey - my name is Doug - I'm in Winnipeg, MB - I've been messing with bikes for about 40 years & have never tired of it - I love all things bicycle [old & new] & recently decided to return to the 'ratrod' kinda thing - this forum seems like a good place to be - I'm looking for a project to get through the winter & until it presents itself, I did this bike to get in the mood - not really 'ratrod', but kinda 'boy racer' :wink: - later doug
