Gettin' Back In the Swing!

Feels like it has been for ever sine I sat down and fluttered away on the key board.  Although this computer IS NOT my on!  Annoying position of keys and what have you.  Each time I go to hit tab I print out q's. Pain in the but! 
SEE! 
RIGHT THERE!
Went to type in a "!" an I got a "@" instead!
Pissah damn!
Well, after the initial two days of momentary panic (and a plethora of daddy language infused diatribe about the disloyalty of landlords....oh don't get me started on landlords....) I set back to the task of building new ride and doing repair.  And OH the repair!  Thanks to all for keeping us rolling with their trust, not to mention their work!  Several overhauls and a couple of refurbs not to mention the regular flow of minor spit and bailing twine tweaks, that keep us movin' on! Thank you so much.  AND not to mention the many referrals that have been coming in.  Wish we had more to sell you folks.
And a special shout out to Uncle Chip!  He came in today to show off the 40th in his bike collection!
(THERE! I did it again!  another freakin "@") And it is a special honor as we were the ones who supplied him with the raw materials. 
Story is, in a conversation about a yer go he made the passing jest that he wanted to purchase a ten gallon hat, a pair of sheep skin chaps as he wanted  to purchase and ride a Giant Green Iguana.
Now before you go thinking we have gotten into the care and feeding of wayward animals (we have kids...that's enough) but it is in fact a bicycle.
Well as fate would have it last week in a scrap truck buy I got just such a bike. One call later and a very excited Chip paid us a visit.  Well after much labor on his part he gave birth to one SWEET urban cruiser!!  Check it out below!


That is one slick ride!!!  He did a full tear down and major clean!  Actually found a real close to the original green touch up.  Topped it off with the luggage rack, new headset, fenders and a nice set of Micheline slicks!  SWEEEET!
And speaking of sweet rides....check out our latest addition!


OH YEA!!!!
In order a fully refurbed West German collapsible bike, 18 speed "DAILY BANGER SPECIAL" men's mountain bike.  A GORGEOUS LIKE NEW ladies 26" MTB.  A real slick ladies 7 speed cruiser and a fully refurbed classic Schwinn World Sport road bike!  All up for first dibs!
And speaking of first dibs....
As we prepare for the move it would be real great (hint hint) if a huge mass of bike buying folk came to pay us visits over the next few days and pick out a bike for their new home.  And help us make money to pay for ours!
(hint,hint)
Hope to see y'all REAL soon!
'till tomorrow!
