We got socked over the weekend with about 9 inches of snow. I woke up to find part of the neighbors' tree in our yard. After shoveling the drive and the walk, I thought I might take a nice ride on the Fooster Class Project http://bikeforums.net/showthread.php?t=271962 After switching out saddles, making a few adjustments and pumping up the tires, I was off.

Considering the bike's history, it rode very well with very little work done to it. I decided that I'm not doing too much to the Project except to replace the saddle, cables and pedals. I'm probably going to add some rattle can embellishment to the otherwise boring black paint.
