Thanks!
I have none, unfortunately. I was thinking about painting the other bike but then decided against it for cost and quality concerns. Prep work is really important, and my best guess as to what it would cost to repaint a frame and fork professionally along with having it sand blasted would be a few hundred dollars, but I really don't know.

Coming out of the tree? No, that's a poplar tree and it sprouts leaves and branches everywhere. Or maybe you mean all that green stuff in the background? That's just regular ivy, it grows up the side of the house in a few places.
It honestly wouldn't surprise me if I had parked the bike right in the middle of some poison ivy though, lol. I'm one of those random weird people who is immune to it and I don't even notice it most of the time. Other people can't touch some of my outdoors stuff for that reason.
