I built up my Cinelli Super-Corsa Pista last year, it was a slow project and I had yet to take it out for a ride before the weather went south for the winter. Finally the sun decided to visit us again and I had a few hours Sunday afternoon to go play and I decided to take her out for the maiden voyage. I rode out to the Philadelphia Museum of Art to watch the tourists run up the "Rocky Steps".
Rolled through Love Park, such a beautiful view through the statue down the Benjamin Franklin Parkway with the museum in the background.
Then rolled south down Broad St. to check out a little bike swap meet happening outside of MIke's Bikes. And then visited my friend Elissa at her store, Nice Things. The mural is in her back yard, a couple of old heads painted it for her it makes for a nice backdrop.Looking forward to getting it out a lot more this year. I have collected the bits and pieces for years, it was really nice to ride them all together on such a beautiful frame. I will take some more detailed pics later and give you the full tour and background stories about some of the parts.
this blog rules. keep it up!
ReplyDeleteThanks, it gets harder to find time now that the weather is warm and people wants their bikes built and fixed. I might not post as often, but I will do my best to keep em coming!
