I'm interested in learning a bit more about these projects.
With apologies for the belated reply and for resurrecting this almost-dormant thread (I had sporadic access to my computer the past couple days), thanks for your interest in the bikes I posted above. Since you asked...yes, there are a couple threads about these projects, though the Ron Kit is still a work in progress:

To keep it on topic, I've also read Dave Ramsey's
Total Money Makeover. As for non-bike-related accomplishments, my wife and I both maxed out our Roth-IRA contributions this year for the first time, and we also set up a college fund for our daughter (though we're telling her that she's going to need a scholarship

).
