it is a good thread
while walking down a street in Quebec City, not a crazy busy touristy street jammed w souvenir shops, but rather a more common street w everyday business traffic but of course still many street cafes, I was admiring some old architecture but what really got my interest was this old bike. look at that fork. I looked around & across the street was a bike shop. told Wifey I had to go in. turned out to be a a pretty typical neighborhood bike shop with two ppl working with a mechanic busy up in the back. I was impressed to see so many Brooks saddles on display for sale. must be for a good reason, as-in they sell them! https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/bikefor...70148ff009.jpg https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/bikefor...a8616079f0.jpg |

Well, it IS Hollywood, after all. Nothing serious, but he apparently gets a date any time he wants one. He has no idea how lucky he is...

Not bike related but I picked up a couple of Davidson Star D tripods from a local today for a photography project. These were made in the 1950's I believe.

Took the old Super Course down PCH to Malibu yesterday. Great ride, great old bike. The ugly clamp on bottle holder on the seatpost is temporary. I expected it to be a lot hotter, a 2 bottle day. It was only hot at the end, 91° back in Camarillo, so glad I had the second bottle. Views along PCH, Magu Rock, seen in lots of TV commercials, my Raleigh behind Neptune's Net. Good times!https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/bikefor...13feddafae.jpg https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/bikefor...73d5213fb2.jpg https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/bikefor...0a17a96a3f.jpg https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/bikefor...bf06412e8a.jpg |
picked this up from a forum member not thinking my son would fit it until next year but what do you know...
https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1853/...cf237ae6_b.jpg guess i need to get around to rehabbing it now vs over the winter. |
^^^ Wow, perfect. By next year, he'll probably outgrow it....

Dead carbon bikes following today's Cool Breeze Century Ride. Poor things, had carbonitis. If they were steel bikes, they'd still be going strong. I only hope the riders survived. Oh, the humanity! |

Couldn't sleep and went to watch the Sun rise thru all the smoke. Stopped at Multnomah falls lodge for breakfast. https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1853/...bf8af33c_c.jpg39453273_1683513991759943_6382184697341935616_n by K Farm, on Flickr |
Gitane TdF. Meal looks good,for me tho,French toast on the side. |
^^^^^ Talk about your "timeless" shot - except for the stack of bottled water, the New Balance shoes and the digital effect of the photo, this could easily have been taken in 1977.

OK, not Every Day ——- But I was checking old text msgs. https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/bikefor...8249d24d8.jpeg |
^^^ very cool !! Is it legit? Where's it at? It could use a coat of wax or better yet new paint, but that might decrease the historic value. Buddy should have taken the bus :(
