More Bikes for Friends
I thought I had toned down the amount of bike stuff I was doing when I moved to Pittsburgh, but it turns out I still turned out a fair amount of bikes for friends during my two years at school.
The 1948 Raleigh Sports Was Definitely Here to Stay For At Least Three More Years
The last time I wrote about this bike, I had to edit the post saying that the person who had me overhaul it had sold it back to me.
Updates on the 2werkules
I made some minor-yet-major changes to the 2-speed Hercules shortly after building it, but it really hasn't changed much over the past two years.

Ol' Gilbert's Still Got It
The last time I made a specific post about Gilbert was over THREE AND A HALF years ago. I was thinking of selling, but decided against it. After riding that summer and realizing that this 1979 Raleigh Superbe was far too good of a bike to "retire," whatever that would have meant, I was going to write some more. This post was supposed to be published in the fall of 2016, at which point I had the bike for 1.5 years. By next month, I will have been riding this bike for 5. Since I last wrote about this bike, I have put at least 2,000 more miles on it, which is a conservative estimate even with the presence of other lighter, faster bikes. The title of this post has not changed.
