Folks Of Interest Wignutz visits Poverty Flats and brings cool stuff

What a good night here on the Plains! My pal Mark (wingnutz) from WI showed up after work tonight and brought two of the three board track motorized bikes I had bought recently with him in his car. So after eating some dinner we unloaded the bikes for some play time before it got dark. <center>

Here are the bikes: <center>

Mark's a good guy, I am a little surprised he didnt try to ride one up.... I guess he would need a ride home though.

 

Those look like fun. And a good way to lose a gonad.

 

I let Mark ride my black bike. I've had this one home for over a month now. I ride it almost every day or night.<center>

ain't he a cutie pie!

 

Hey mate are those bikes newish? The white in particular looks great.

 

Those are fantastic- more pics of the Cream/Green one please!!!

 

Still have one bike left in WI at Bobwop's place. I would like to thank him for buying all of these for me and helping me in many ways. I couldn't ask for a better friend than him.

 

This one is fast and loud. <center>

Thanks Paul- trust me, I'll be "right-clicking" the minute I get back to GA!!!

What bicycle was it built from?

 

I don't know any details I just bought them for fun. The cream colored one supposedly goes 50 MPH and the black one goes 45. Don't know about the maroon one yet.

 

maroon bike is geared more for quickness than speed. Much to my liking. Doesn't have that "fancy pants" look. Much to my liking.

I would prefer blackwalls and poverty hubcaps

 

Those are cool!!!! My little bro has been adding engines to those Walmart cruiser bikes lately too!

 

Those things are really cool. I'm not sure I would try to get 'em up to 50 though.

 

new all white balloon tires have already been ordered.

 

If it wasn't 10:30 I would already be building one!

 

man those are cool....

 

Yes, they are not that old. The white or beige colored one is mostly custom built and has alot of neat details. It really has the look and feel of an antique motorcycle.

 

Ok, I want one! Where do we sign up Paul?

 

Kathy, I am slowly working my up the ladder so I can be a real biker like you. I want to keep these so friends and visitors can ride with me in my small town area just for fun.

 

Just a thought here...
A step by step "how to" of how to build one of those would probably win the next tech challenge here on the HAMB

 

Ha ha! My bike doesn't even know who I am. I have 40's Columbia Bicycle that I bought from the original owner (true story). It's hanging in The Push Bar now and I was thinking.....

Pir8Darryl is right, we need a tech or you need to start marketing them. That looks like too much fun and I know my boy would like it!

 

Im all in!!!!!!!!!!TECH ARTICLE PLEASEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Well someone else will have to do it. I sure can't take any credit or claim any knowledge here. I sure know how to ride though.

 

Hey Paul, you have some cool friends and even cooler bikes...
Dont sell them before I come around next.

 

Well Russ, since you are one of my coolest friends I will keep them around for you to play on too. Lots of low budget fun which in today's economy is a good value.

 

No Mark----YOU have got it made and yes I will bring them to the event in the back of an old pickup truck and then let the games begin. You can ride too. They will really be good to have at the drags on friday night.

 

great looking bikes...looks like fun. i have been working on some old bikes i have had around lately. may be time to motorize one.
