Well the last of my stuff came today. My clipless shoes and these loud pink tires!

YEAY!:lol:

Whats the story of the frameset? Must of been some sorta team frame? Kinda like the polka dots on it. Really can't stand colored tires, such a 1996/97 de rigueur thing, or maybe a fix gear hipster deal haha.

speaking of pink, and cannondales... I got my '03 (I think) caad 7 frame redone:

No, just how I painted it.
Well, I did put the name of my business on it and called it "Team" Spookeay Marine.com LOL.............. I am going to ride the tires a bit and see how they do. I know they are hard to keep clean.

It definitely deserved pink tires. Nice work!

I like it. Clean 'em after every ride and they'll probably stay fairly bright. And don't ride through any mud puddles!

The perfect shade of pink, no less!

So is a Spookeay Bird a Pink Flamingo? :innocent:

I know a girl who would absolutely go nuts for that bike. Very cool.

Yea I think it's too cute. so do many of my friends I have shown it too.
Now, to learn these clipless. I can get one foot locked in but the other one after I am going, I am playing hell with LOL. I guess like any thing practice.

Practice... over grass is not a bad idea.

That goes together really nicely...it looks hot and fast.

Thanks, Ya know my thing is really art and design. If I can just get the thrifty part down I think I could get pretty good at this bike stuff LOL

No, He's an 18 year old African Grey Parrot.

Pics or it didn't happen :)

My first vintage build was a Raleigh Professional in Team Livery. I of course thought it was an SBDU Team bike until I learned a bit more about the serial numbers. Still...it's a Worksop Professional, it could have been a LOT worse (like a Record). I used 27inch rims instead of 700s on the build, I replaced the Reynolds decal (and used the wrong Reynolds decal) and I bought most of the parts from ebay. I spent quite a bit, probably around what you spent, and I consider it tuition.

I got better at it and you will too.

Oh Sorry,,, http://spookeaymarine.info/photos/bird7.jpg
The original Spookeay Bird. I now have 5 parrots. 2 greys, 1 macaw and one umbrella cockatoo & one amazon.

Oh I know I will.... The old adage, A lesson learned is never a free one. LOL!

Thinking about taking a photo of the bike tonight under a black light...

Did you run over King Kong's wad of of bubblegum?
:D

HA HA that is funny. It is hubba bubba pink!

Spookeay, you've got to get that bike and that bird in a photo together. :love: Not that I'm personally adept with colors, but I understand that pink and grey are very complimentary, and I can't say that I disagree.

superb

Get comfortable clicking out before taking a ride... and stay away from traffic for a few days. Everybody, and I mean everybody, hits the pavement while starting with clipless.

Love the bike... the tires are perfect for it. :thumb:

Well, this is about as good as I can do on short notice and dark so they are set to roost.http://spookeaymarine.info/photos/spookbike.jpg

See, that's why they do not interest me.

It's a very awesome bike. I'd ride that.

HA HA! Thanks.......... It's like riding on lit neon tubes!
