... not sure what to make of all this bs ... my last two (and final) "projects" that really got me going, were:

1. an english rider that has all period nos parts.

... and ...

2. an american racer that also has all period nos period stuff.

it took several years and change to put these guys together, and like the best laid plans, we actually had no idea where we were ever going. i just loved the hunt, and where ever it led, was where we were being directed too. lately it seems to be the rec center/rehab but that's another issue. anyway we're now loveingly tapped out ...

i don't need any "judgement" on what i did (which is why we don't show them). i love it when we get back after a workout at the center and can just look at one of those things.

wallhangers! wallhangers ! we don't have to show you any wallhangers !! (to steal a line from Sierra Madre)
