What a parent won't do for their kids.......



Mom and me made these little yummies tonight after the kids went to bed. We are surprising them tomorrow by dropping them off at Ella's preschool and Madee's 1st grade class. It will be so fun for them.

Lots of work but the look on their faces will be worth the effort. They are suppose to be scary black cats but they look more like mice to me.

Have a great Halloween everyone! Play safe!

Ride till the cows come home......


I wish I could on a day like today. Just a perfect day to out riding a Salsa Mamasita. Everyday is a good day for that though. I had quite a bit of company today. Saw a friend out jogging, saw some cows, horses, dead coons, hawks and a couple of dogs. I think the cows were wondering where they can get a fancy 29er like mine. I said they could have it for $1500 but they just told me to move.....or maybe they said moo. Maybe I left before they finished....they could have been starting to say mooooola. Crap! I bet one of them had the cash! Oh well. I know they would have complained about the spd's pedals. I bet they would prefer those egg beaters. Mainly just so they could tease all the chickens back at the farm.

By the way.....if you are looking for a single speed mtb or a cross bike, stay tuned. In the near future I will have three to five bikes for sale. Good prices too.

Enjoy what's left of your weekend! Check out this site later today or tonight for some cross action fotos.

A couple of my new toys.



My laptop has opened up a whole new chapter in me being able to blog and do photo related things. I have before work and during my lunch now. As I said the other day we have wireless internet in the building I work it. It is nice.

I will leave you now but wanted to show you a pic of something else I have been working on. More to come on that later.

Enjoy the rain.

Project Schwinn


I recently picked up this little Schwinn Traveler road bike. She is a beautiful metalic red. Check out the chrome on the fork legs. She will soon make a complete transformation into a fixie or single speed, depending on what type of rear hub we have. Looks like she has not ventured to far from where she was purchased. A Schwinn Shop in Waterloo Iowa? Some of you older folks might even remember this shop. Maybe you can even post a comment on the shop history???

Keep checking back for some updates in the next couple of weeks. I have a couple more secret projects that I will be posting in the next few weeks. One is a 29er and the other is a fixie project.

My sweeties.......




Today is a good day for me to show off my lovely little ladies. For those that do not already know, Madee is the dark haired and Ella is the light brown haired.

They are both so wonderful and make my life complete.

Have a great day folks and if you have kids go home tonight and give them a hug (or phone call) and tell them how much they mean to you.

Oh yeah, & don't forget to ride your bikes.

Finally bought a laptop......

Well, I have a laptop now and wireless internet at my workplace. So, I will be blogging again starting this week. Nothing really good for today. Just catching up on things.

Lots of busy things in my life lately. Some biking, kid things, house remodel and family activities.

What a rapid end to the summer. I have so many outside projects left to finish.

Talk to you soon.
