Single Speed MTB...

This bike has been laying around my work...abused and outdated. I started looking into updating but it just wasn't worth it. So I decided to go cheap and single speed. Ripped off all of the old components...$35 for a Forte single speed conversion kit...$17 for a new chain...a little bit of patience...some trial and error...and all of a sudden I am excited about riding it again. New life for the tired Schwinn.

Dodgeball = Intense...

I made it out to cheer on Megan and her dodgeball team...INTENSE! Truth be told...Cory is a dodgeball playing MACHINE!!! Looks like fun!

Single wheel trailer...

So my pops hits me up about this Allstate single wheel trailer he found for sale from a buddy. He tells me, "It's really kind of random and odd...so I thought of you." Hahahah....aaaand he was right super random and I love it! I'd never heard of them...apparently they are popular in the VW scene. They are belived to have been manufactured form the 40's to the 60's. Two arms mount to your bumper brackets and the trailer pivots off of the single back wheel that is set up with a single spring suspension system. Looks like this one was set up with some bed stakes. Again...Super random and super excited to get my hands on this thing...looks AWESOME! The rusty trailer in photos is the trailer through my pops cell phone...needs some love...looking forward to that...and I was looking for an excuse to use undercoating on another project! Although thin wood bed strips on top of the ribs would be pretty slick too...damn! The really nice trailers in the photos I nabbed from http://www.singlewheel.com/ check em out.
