My sister in Oak Park has a red 'bent.

But is it an Earth Cycles Sunset Lowracer with custom "T" handlebars and
a hinged steering riser? I highly doubt that there are two such bikes in
existence.

If you're ever in the Seattle area, don't hesitate to drop a line, we'll
do
a ride. That goes for most of you, not just Karen. You just get to decide
if
you're in the "most" category ;-)

I'll be over tomorrow morning, say about eightish? My sons can
house-sit while we ride. They tend to eat a lot though.

That would be *fabulous*. My older daughter will be busy with a special exam
all morning -- if your sons can mind my younger one, we have all morning to
ride, and my husband can come too. He just did the grocery shopping, so
there's plenty to eat in the house for your sons.

What do you want to do -- ride around the top of the lake? That would be
about what I'd like to do. It's a 45 mile loop from here, at least the route
I like the best. They say chance of rain tomorrow morning, so bring your
jacket.

See you at 8:00! I can't *wait*!

Damn Pete I never figured you for a recumbent.

Robert
diff'rent strokes eh

Currently lapsed, but I have a LWB frame collecting dust, awaiting buildup.
Also a 20" suspension fork that is looking for a SWB frame. Plus, I've been
refining a few front end designs for a low racer trike.

Oh...an old Bianchi MTB frame that SCREAMS for a SS conversion.

Along with the hoverskateboard design, too...

Ken, it's about 7:40 AM, and I'm just going to go upstairs and put on my
tights. I'm looking forward to seeing you here in just a few minutes. It's
not raining (although overcast), and as warm as 46 degrees already, so it
looks like some good riding. If you're not here by 8:00, I'll be heading up
and over the lake, so just catch up to me, ok?

Well, Ken, you never showed, but I did write a review of this morning's
ride, which you may view over at r.b.rides. Sorry, you just missed out!
