    Check my avatar, it's a Laverda.

    just wear - don´t compare - what matters is that one loves what one is wearing…

          Know what it feels like.  I bust my finger careering down Kirk Fell in the Lake District a few years ago, that was before I realised I could use the bracken to slow me down.

                  Want to show off my bike hehe. Well it’s not bike bike, but bicycle.
                  I made it myself for my wife from bits and used 1983 frame I bought on flee bay.

                  Frame before:

                        richochet – I'm seriously impressed that you made that bike, dude. You're very talented ! Check this article out :
                        http://www.velvetparkmedia.com/blogs/chicks-bikes-and-brooklyn-woman-owned-bike-shop-changing-neighborhood

                        I admire KT Higgins. As I've mentioned before, I'm a total numbskull when it comes to mechanical inclination. That's why I write code for a living. Logical/Analytical mind, YES. But there's a certain high intelligence associated with building things, fixing things with your bare hands – and I lack that kind of IQ.

                          That is a sweet build!  I'm just about to do the same thing with a frame I found on ebay.  This time, being only my second, I'll be documenting/photo-ing my progress.  I'm gonna do up a utility bike using an early 80's Univega Vivia Touring frame.  😉
