rusty.western.flyer Now on the pipe!

Hello,

This is my second motorized bike build, the first was a Dolomite fat tire, but it was stolen. Grr, guess they needed it more than me. Have to dig for pic of that one, but anywho....

Just installed a China girl on the Western Flyer Newsboy Special....

I guess they did have some sort of faux tanks back in the day.

Anywho, went to work today and decided to try a commute with Rusty.

No sure my puppy likes the basket. He is from Save A Sato Puerto Rico, we also adopted his brother.

Excuse me, I reread again and wheelbender called the CG tank the original tank?
My Bad, I thought that the Modern CG tank was so obvious that wheelbender must of been talking about a fake tank.
Maybe calling the CG tank the original was wheelbenders way of giving rusty a compliment for a good job on making it look old?

Maybe wheelbender might come back and clear this up?

I had to read this back a couple times. My shop caters to vintage and classic cars (many race cars) and the brain kept saying "Center of Gravity" or "Ground Control"when you used "CG" haha.
 
Cool and the puppy has that look... Why are we stopping dad. :ROFLMAO:
Oh, no, he didn't ride with! Just set him in the basket for a photo op hehe. He would jump out and chase the first squirrel, and probably run over. Him and his brother had a sibling that was run over when the rescue was trying to help mom and pups off "dead dog alley" :(
 
Kudos to you for saving him/her. (y) (y)
Thanks! (they are brothers) If you ever looking for a pet, Save a Sato is a great org. They ship puppies out often since there's not much infrastructure for them in PR. After we adopted, found out the classice car sales guy, neighbor at work (opposite side of cabinet/junker guy) also got his great dane from SaSPR. They fly dogs out by the pallet full of crates to the US. They have a good life now :)
 
Here's a short story... My wife Becky thought she needed a teacup purse dog.
Well that F'ing $1.200 dog didn't last over two years :(...
Then we got a black Chow Chow dog from the free kennel. It's the best dog that I've ever had. :)

Our last dog (boxer) passed 2.5yr ago. We had her from rearing, 10.8yr. :( She was a gift from the in laws when our last munchkin was born. She was our second boxer.

These guys cost us 600 clams OTD from the local SPCA, adults are 150, pups are 300 with all shots, two weeks of food, two free vet visits etc. Pretty sure the boxers were like $2k from a rep breeding house (not a puppy mill/mall) in 2006 when we got our last girl.
