This is my first BLOG post ever.
Since I have had a hard time parking my motorcycle at work, I decided to take Caitlin's recently purchased Schwinn to do anything to avoid riding the train. Yes, I would rather ride a girl bike than cram myself into a packed traincar for 20 minutes on the way to work every day.
A couple of weeks ago I got almost a complete bike after a 3 hour drive for both my parents and me, who I met in Wisconsin. But that did not work because of the size. So, I went up to a used bike store the other day to pick up a road-bike frame to start from. Luckily, I could use a lot of the parts on that bike with this new frame.
The Miyata!
Bare bones
Had to give the old guy a bath.
Peeled off all the stickers while they were loose from the bath
I pulled out all the berings and used the dish soap to clean them up
I had to ride the girl bike 20 miles round trip to purchase this spray paint.
The only place to paint was sneaking behind the CVS, next door in the alley.
The Miyata with the tape off.
I am anixiously waiting on all the parts from Ebay!
