Welcome to my Flickr Photoge'

I currently live in Rush NY with my partner of over 10 years.. Our three fabulous dogs and two cantankerous cats.

While serving in the Marines i took part in a number of triathlons as well and bike races..Following a serious training accident i was unable to compete..Then about five years ago, while, talking to a friend, i was encouraged to look at fixing bikes as a paying hobby. At first i scoffed at the idea but his persistence paid off and i purchased my first fixer upper for 40 bucks and sold it for 450.00. Between repairs and rebuilds i did very well my first year. One might assume its about the money now in my 6 th year its so not about the money and more about giving that old vintage bike a second lease on life..lets keep bike out of the landfill... Lets educate and inspire others to get out on the trail and enjoy the environment. Lets cut down on emissions and encourage cities to make way for human powered vehicles and do it affordably.

I have a desire, not only to repair and rebuild bikes but hopefully move into the high end artistically build and refurbished vintage riders.. Its not cheap but well worth the trek..

The people i have met in this process are amazing.. Always willing to help me in my cause and teach me the necessary skills i need to make my dreams a reality. Customers, other mechanics, riders and of course my family..Oh so tolerant of my obsessions.

Hope you enjoy some of my pics. If you would like to contact me concerning repairs, rebuilds and over all rehabs please feel free to contact me at ziggyz63@gmail.com...
