It's been a fun trip these last few years since I became involved in the vintage bicycle hobby.

My only regret are the piles of physical photos and .jpgs that have accumulated over the years ;) I might as well put them to use, eh?

Enjoy...

P.S.: These are roughly in chronological order. Some of these machines are no longer with me, some are.

'47 Schwinn Henderson

'71 Raleigh Sports

A bike that ultimately became my ticket to the VLW scene (after swapping out the flat bars) - a Bridgestone RB-3:

A '74 Sprite, my only other Notthinham Raleigh trash pile find - the other was the '71.

The only worthwhile thing to do to a Vista Esquire. Sold for $30:

I have some more photos, but it'll take me a bit of digging to bring the good ones out. Give me the afternoon to sort out a nice collection of photos. Forum limits me to 10 pics a post anyway...

I dont know why, but I love that photo, like a backyard mini bicycle factory, or maybe cause it looks somewhat organized. I just basically have several piles where all the parts get tossed!
