ratty old awesome bike




This bike was abandoned in front of Grandma's house.  Greta quickly claimed it.  It has to be at least twenty years old.  There was some scary jagged rusted metal and the hard plastic grips were cracked. Nothing that a pair of pliers and painters tape couldn't fix.  Awesome.

Anything that's more than twenty years old is worth saving. They are much more durable than the things made today. Plus they look SO much cooler and awesome!

Totally agree with Ansku. Love old bikes, they are something special, never know where they have been, never know where they are going :)
