1. 70s Rollfast Bromleigh 24 (for my youngest son). Bent fork has been a showstopper so far (got snobbed by several local places including a custom frame builder/restorer -with stellar reputation may I add- in a "these bikes do not worth our time" way.) Some parts in hand, looking for a sale on alloy 24 inch wheels and tires and another set of arms and a pipe to see whether we can bend the fork back in place, before I bite the bullet and try to find a different one...

2. 89 Raul Mesa RDM. 90% of parts in hand (everything minus a 26.6 seat post, 600EX italian BB and 600EX headset.) Tri/TT buildup, with a knee-breaking 11-16 straight freewheel. It will be slow because I would not need it until the summer.

3. Early 80s/late 70s Allentown-built Ross Professional touring bike. Everything on hand minus brake cables and handlebar tape, which are on the way. Not sure what I will do with that one... so the build might be more involved than that.

4. A mystery 87+ red Bianchi that will arrive next week. Just couldn't pass on that one and depending what it is, the project may take shape
