yeah, riding is nothing new for me, but riding at anything over 110 is, but i plan to take baby steps. Theres no point in building something you cant even ride, or at least learn to ride, right?

Yup thats the place I have done the Karaoke thing there I was almost famous,englishman singin billy ray cyrus songs, priceless!
If Cath and Marvin (native american geologists) are still there say hello for me!

Back to the Bike,I looked into building a streamliner when I started on my project and it is a very involved process i would start with a straight forward bike project first. I have been building bikes for 20+ years and I have built show winning chops and Streetfighters in a quater of the time it has taken to build this one, but havin said that it has been well worth it i have learned more building this than I ever could have imagined.

give it a go
