Health issues got me riding this one more than I like, but when the knee is acting up , I can still ride. Tc
And when it don't hurt too much I ride 2 wheels
The pic of the trike is up on top of the Cheroholla Skyway if you look at the sign. Tc“ I,m getting the impression that everyone thinks I have TIME to fix their bikes”

The factory trikes just came out when I retired, worked on a few before hanging up the wrenches. I remember those Triumph Tigers when they came out, almost bought one! Here's my 2005 T100 that I used for rippin' around town when the dresser was too much:

Okay.............here is what is in the making for a drawing/raffle minus the money donation. I will be preparing a banded boar 24mm knot brush in a spalted Tamarind hardwood.
Hope all that attend will like the design seeing that I have not figured that one out yet! It will even be a surprise to me and the lathe as well.
So Joe, hopefully this will be ready for the drawing in just over a week. I will post Friday the night before our meet the finished turned brush here on the page for all to see.German blade snob!

Is the event open to SRP newbies? I post a bit on the forum across the street, but I mostly stick to the facebook groups. A friend from there that's a member here told me about this get together, and I'd love to attend. I've been doing the straight razor thing since last May and have acquired a handful of cool, vintage blades, but my poor stropping skills are costing me an arm and a leg in honing costs. I'd love to get some in-real-life advice about stropping and honing if I can. :-)
I'm scared to death the USPS is going to lose these every time I send them out for honing..

I think I speak for the rest of the guys that it certainly is open to anyone who wants to attend. Everyone would be glad to have you.
