I purchased this bike from The Cabe forums though I knew the guy from Schwinn forums. He is a great guy to work with and his packing was beyond anything I had seen before. I know for certain the bike is a 1965 by the serial # but I don't know what it is called. I saw a Columbia Thunderbolt ad...

Oh Nice Tiger! Both are good looking bikes for sure! Congrats.

I have been working on this for a few months...that thing called work kind of gets in the way. All I need to do is change out the tires and I'll be done. I an quite pleased with it, but there are some flaws that I am sure I will improve on with experience. This is how it began, a CL find...

I rode a kickback last week and it was surprisingly smooth. I really didn't know what to expect but it was an enjoyable experience. It is kind of odd at first! The bike was this 60s Schwinn Tiger.

Wow..that is one beautiful Tiger! I rode one of those when I visited my bike collecting barber and it was such a smoooth ride! I am looking for one myself!

And boy do we need multispeed here in ABQ! :D

Found this beautiful '69 Schwinn Deluxe Twinn on CL Santa Fe. Lady was so nice. We're very happy to add this bike to our family. We'd had so much fun today riding around the neighborhood.

I found these two bikes today at a garage sale. Both in great shape. 1st is a Peugot Record duMonde road bike. Great shape has alot of extras including lights (front and rear) and Cateyemate odometer. Second is a made for Raleigh Ramper 5 speed. I wasn't able to find much info on...

I wish my bank account look like Liberace's! My bike collection would greatly increase.

Very cool! I think its great that ya'll are getting the pubicity in your city. Our club is in its infancy stage, only 3 members!! The only way to go is up! Congrats again!

I was enjoying the views around me...I had no idea he was cutting my hair until he asked for payment! :D

My friend recently told me about his barber since childhood. He said I should visit cause the guy has lots of bikes in and around his shop. Today was my second visit, first with my camera. I would estimate he has 50ish in the shop itself, and another 200 in the back in a big shed and around...

Louisville Slugger I hope no one has done this style before. After months of reading thru all of the threads, I have finally decided to build a customized bike. Not sure it would classify as a Rat or not, but here is the beginning. I found this bike by someone's garbage on trash day and the...

I live in the desert SW...we need ANY type of rain we can get! Schwinn rain would be just fine. Send some our way! :D

I was watching the Olympics yesterday and saw a Smuckers Commercial (I think it was smuckers) that recreated a little boy back in 50s (guessing) walking with his friend. He is pushing a an older bike along an old dirt road! I can't make out what kind it is, but neat nonetheless! Anyone seen...

I found this in the garage sale part of CL. Needs quite a bit of work. Thought it was too cool to pass. Anyone have any info on this bike I would definetly appreciate the help! Missing handlebars as you see. Also needs a new seat along with a few other parts. The gentleman I bought it...

I just picked up a ladies Shelby Flying Cloud as well. I don't know anything about it but it was very inexpensive and can be a future project. If anyone has any info on this one that would be great! I sure would appreciate it. :)

Thanks guys! I found one of those guns on sale at Harbor Freight for $14.99. I'm going to take the plunge and buy it before my next paint job. Should be fun! Thanks again

Nice! Wish I had that kind of luck!

Could those of you who use a paint gun to paint the bikes give me some recommendations? I have NO clue what/where to buy. What is a good cost? I have a compressor already. Thanks for the help in advance.
