Winter Projects 2014

What interesting projects have you got lined up over the next few months?

I'm planning on doing something cheap and ugly with this Schwinn Sports Tourer to leave in my office in NYC.



This thing fell into my lap (meaning I bid on it on eBay) for $43 shipped as seen here. Campy drops, new paint, nice bb, superbe mech. It's some type of columbus tubing, apparently. If I could find a chrome fork with a bunch of steerer that'd be nice, though I'm also thinking about a 1" carbon fork from nashbar.. Aside from that I don't know. Maybe I'll just build it and give it to a friend.



Picked up this JT Tour of Britain in California a month ago. I tried to get Bob Freeman at Elliott Bay to paint it but he declined due to time. Now I hear they're closing. So I guess it's going to Bilenky. I'd like the original paint job recreated.







This is a keeper and a frame I'd been looking for in my size for quite some time. I'll build it with most likely with DT shifting and a mix of stuff that will make me want to ride it a lot.

I've also got a Surly Disc Trucker that I may or may not do anything with. However, fender1 if you read this I will come get the wheels some time this year, promise!

Anyhow, what have you guys got going on?
