Onto this new steed. I found it while on my morning walk with Bobby. It was perched along a line of refuse and I assume was meant for blue box recycling.
But I couldn't Walk by without giving it some consideration. No, I couldn't allow it to find its way to the scrapyard.
The details: It's a yellow Bayfield bike from the Hudson Bay company. Probably 1970s. The bike's been made into a fixie. It's clearly been through adventures as it's covered by 'The Grime of Life'. It's got a nice little Quando flip flop hub on the back. It is missing a front rim and tire and will need brakes and an overhaul.
I think its name might be Lester! Only with time, and some TLC, can we bring this beast back.
More to come.
