new bikes

 Well, we did it, we bought new bikes. We want to do some light trail riding and with what we had, just wasn't for that. So, with a trip to the "big city", we came back with a couple of cheaper bikes. We thought about finding some at a garage sale around here, in fact I went out to one, but they had been sold. The problem with that is, since we are so close to the gulf, the salty air is very hard on the metal. What we would find, might be so rusty, it would be hard to get to a good working condition. We sat down the other day and treated our new bikes with rust resistant sprays, hopefully that will help preventing rust.

Maybe what we should of done, is bought one of these 4 passenger bikes, that way the dogs could have a seat, too.  Ha Ha!!
Now I have a project, to build a bike rack for the back of the pick-up. Yesterday, I went to Lowe's to buy some PVC pipe for the idea that I have.  If it works, I'll post a picture.....Later -M
