Re: Tire Mounting
I use that "duck butter" stuff that's used to lubricate plumbing o rings. Use it for reg tubes, HD tubes, Bibs...I've had HD tubes just about weld themselves to the tire with only baby powder in there.

Re: Looking for a vintage race bike
I get that. In my greatly disappointing history of selling things.......I tend to sell cheap to a known good home. I've lost money on every deal. I'm wicked numb in that respect, but I know that my pride and joy will be loved for the right reasons. Like a good treetop flyer, "I don't do busines...

Anyone else ever try this? After a back injury that has sidelined me (severe sciatica with some permanent nerve damage) I thought I was pretty much done. It took a year of focus and 20k to even get back working again. No surgical relief possible. Plenty of drugs. Got to the point where even morphine...

I'm going to buy something from one of the local shops. I'm not really that concerned what it is anymore. They are all better than I'll ever be, so I'll just get a bike and work on me.......

Re: 36 Netra enduros in 1976
I can remember when the White Mountain club used to run Enduros around Mt Agamenticus (my back yard) when I was a kid. We had those sections so down.....we'd ride them on Honda 50's thinking we were real rock stars lol. There were a ton of people riding out there with miles and miles of trail. Now i...
