I've off and on been thinking about building one, or having it built, for the past 7 or eight years.

Edit: Looks like I might want to continue in that direction....

Is that adjustable post shore really holding up the roof?

I hear you on weather issues!

We have had severe T-storms roll through here the last three nights.

Sixty mile an hour winds, lots of lightning and urban flash flooding.

Trees down in our neighborhood.

This is on top of a cool, very wet spring.

I would really like to see the sun one of these days......

I really hope your bike basement took none of the flooding ;) Let's hope for a nice fall, then... Between this weather and my thesis riding is way down, the past months...

On a more tropical note, here's a nice vintage shot of some old bikes. Bandung, late 1930's, young people checking the news reports.

Route 35 - Bay Head / Mantoloking NJ
 
the Jersey Shore is still not recovered from Hurricane Sandy. My favorite route through Point Pleasant, Bay Head, & Mantoloking still shows signs from Sandy.

Got to do some gravel grinding on my ride today, thanks to the fellows from Normal Township. Well Done.

Got tired of searching for tapered head bolts.

So I made some.

Took my new RB1 on the Summer Solstice bike ride today. This picture was taken on the MCT Nature Trail, Madison County IL.

Got back last evening from a second honeymoon in London (and one day in Paris). A few of the vintage stuff I saw (and one shot of my wife and I). Never did get a good shot of an Austin Mini. My wife just laughs at them but I think they're pretty cool - a go cart with an enclosed cabin.
It was funny to talk with one of the younger male employees at the Lotus store and find out his dream car is a '69 Mustang - guess the muscle cars of the 60's are popular over there.

This old Raleigh resided outside the flat we stayed in:

A 531 framed (well, at least the main tubes, don't know about the fork) Falcon on the River Thames:
