Hey @kingfish254 , how many days till RRB BO 19? :nerd:

@jimmythefly , glad to hear you got 'hooked' after your first Build Off! That happened to me after my first, and I will be doing my 10th RRB Annual BO this year,with many other MBBO, ORBO, SWBO, and challenges since in the books! RaT oN~!

Only two more 'hump' days before Christmas RRB BO 19!

I made a serendipitous rendezvous with the seller of my build off bike this morning. He lives 4 hours away, but was down for the weekend visiting inlaws in the city. So all I had was a 25 min drive across town. And, oh my! This is gonna be fun! :inlove:

You really did go all out on SWBO! My #1 pick in the skinny class!

It's been a pretty nice Spring here in the BACK 40 so far. Our area of the North country didn't get much snow this winter, and the grass is greening up and the perenials are pushing up through the dirt. Speaking of blooming, any ideas popping up in anybody's mind for tbeir builds in the annual...

What streak would that be?

A second great season of Skinny Rats! Fun to watch these develop this year. SkiNnY RaT oN~!

The ORBO is near and dear to my cycling roots. Fun to watch this year! KluNk RaT oN~!

Sleek , clean, and stylish! Love the 105 rear der!

Agree with Jude and Matti on the front end accutrements! Along with the pistol grips and the Brooksie! Everything about this screams klunker!

'53 Shelby Bel Airflow is still admired at local car shows here in the East valley of Phoenix, AZ. A couple of shows I rode it to in Mesa this 'winter'.

Wet the grips a bit and they will darken. Also, I like the photos with the decals. Gives it that custom production / boutique look!

Lose the chainguard, I like the current pedals, lower the stem to lowest comfortable level.

I love all of this - "I repacked and installed the bottom bracket and added a nicer one-piece crank and a chain wheel is a Wald from a Schwinn Heavy Duti. I sanded, primed and painted the fork with Rustoleum hammer paint in gloss black. I had purchased a pair of Panaracer Smoke tires for...

Klassic single speed klunk! Dig it!

...and, using a cool Loco Joe video (one of my fav RRB dirt riders!) for a tutorial wins bonus points!
