Refurbished Bikes
Here you can see my real passion: restoring/painting/customizing Bikes (of any age old/new) Contact me today for more info on giving YOUR bike a fresh look.
This Bike was part of Wilderness Voyageurs' Annual Used Rental Bike Sale. Kinda rough ( sorry no BEFORE Pics ).
Linda Kay originally just asked to have the "YELLOW" KONA branding badges re-painted to a tonal Green. However, the excitement of wanting to do my first refurbished bike kicked in and had me disassemble it all and paint the whole bike.
We added a Topeak Rear rack and cell phone holder on the bars. Most everything else was just cleaned and reconditioned as it was.
Current BUILDS
...I've been told that I just can't leave a bike alone or as it was originally designed to be owned and rode. Well, I say where's the fun in that?
I'm just gonna keep on tearing them down and rebuilding or redesigning them to suit both my riding styles and/or try to improve the overal look and performance for someone else.
Here is where you can visit to see what I'm up to on any given bike I'm now working on currently...
Okay,this is a 1989 Fugi ACE 2X 7-Speed that I'm currently trying to buy from my good friend Marty
( who's the one that got me hooked on bikes a few summers ago ).
More soon...

The Traveling Wilburys
If you've rode your bike long enough or in any kind of performance based outings you might know that a good strong and steady pace or cadence is extremely helpful.
Listening to your favorite music or especially a Driving "BEAT" style of music can help motivate you to do just that.
I've found this to be so much more effective for me that I've made several playlists specifically with riding my bike on trails and hills all around my home (and beyond) in mind. It has kept me inspired to push through most minor fatigue that often occurs on steep climbs and/or long distances.
While I have many different artists and songs on my favorite bike riding playlist, several of my favorites are by the Traveling Wilburys!
...their guitar riffs along with the beat of some of their more lively songs just suit most any riding mood I'm in.
...get yourself a small bluetooth speaker you can easily attach to your bike, grab your phone and go pedaling and enjoy: "Riding Around In the Breeze"!
Above are just a few of the many Bikes & Buddies I have either enjoyed riding with, work with or met briefly out on the trails and spent time conversing in "Bike-Speak" that all cyclists who are passionate about cycling, love to do.
