New guy from Indiana

[ttop88]

I have been checking this site out for a couple years now. Decided to sign up and be known lol. Name is Mike and I am from Central Indiana. I don't have a rat in the garage at this time but do have parts and ideas. Looking for the frame to base it off of. So for now here is my "daily driver" Felt "Chief"

Trust these guy's. They know rats when they see them.

Personaly I would take a chain to it and paint layers of lead base house paint by hand........................then I would hang my head in shame

Nice Felt Chief!

I'd completely destroy dozens of thrift store, yard sale, and K-Mart bikes before doing anything besides maintainence to that sweet ride! 8)

thank guys Yeah....Im not suffering from any mental illness's so I will be leaving the chief alone. I got my hands on an OCC schwinn and will be building something off of those parts. May end up building a frame from scratch. I am a welder-fabricator by trade.
