Many thanks to my man Dave for commissioning this amazing bike. He has good style and allowed for us at Old World Bicycle to make some suggestions to give this machine is particular patina.
Dave works with CPS while they reinsert recess into the school day agenda. Dave we say thank you for educating Chicago's youth about the importance of being active and athletic. We are proud to have put this bike together for him & to do so to his specs with what we salvaged scraped, & gathered together to provide the most fashionable transport this city will allow. We hope to help inspire the good old fashion American spirit chalked full of hard work, elbow grease and a particular stubbornness that arose from our ancestors desire to build a better tomorrow at any cost. We were wrong a lot but kept growing, innovating, & evolving regardless of the obstacles that may arise. Because that is exactly what it took to bring this 40 + years old french road bike to its current state.
Details:
--Mid to early 1970's Motobecane road frame 54c
--700c mismatched fixed/flip flop Wheelset
--The frame was wire wheeled to bare metal and gun blued (gum bluing is a chemical process used to prevent corrosion on a variety of guns, mostly shot guns and rifles)
--Worn Brooks Saddle
--Aluminum stem and drop bars w/ signature OWB rubber tube wrap kept tight as the grips.
--exposed old chain Saddle retainer to ward petty thieves away from that beautiful saddle
This tough bicycle drips of cool and simply chuckles at the notion that it is anymore than what it is. Keep throwing challenges our way folks we put out great bikes over here and we thank you for the guidance.
Thanks to the crew.
Scottie “the out of work mechanic" for wire wheeling that ancient European paint off this well made and timeless hunk of high tensil steel. "Bubba" for hand sanding and applying the first two coats of Gun Blue. "Dick" for finalizing the gun bluing process and oiling the frame. I also want to say thanks to our neighbor bike shops for stocking what we need during our development stages.
With pleasure,
Skip Tooth

got my new retainer on saturday, but didn't sleep with it until last night for the first time. dang my teeth hurt! it's amazing how much teeth can move in that short of time. when i went to get it on saturday, the orthodontist grabbed the drill and starts hacking away at my tooth claiming it was too long. i was not happy about that. i also had my contacts in with the glasses, so it was hard not to go cross-eyed.

This very old beech tree that stands in the corner of Shireoaks Park has lost another large branch this winter. A barn owl lives within its branches so I hope it is not in the one that has been lost. I visit this 'Old Retainer' from time to time. I know it is coming to the end of its life but it is holding tightly onto many buds waiting for spring to arrive. A Flickr post of mine from 2015 entitled 'Old Retainer' along with a poem is my highest ever viewed photo.

This holds everything down so the shutter will work. It's bayoneted in, and first you have to unlock it by rotating that little blocking device at 1:00.
This decorative stone planter and stone retainer wall are designed to incorporate the home's natural stone exterior into the landscaping.
This salt-finish and stained concrete entry way creates a nice focal point toward the home's front entrance.

I got my retainers this morning. I hope this photo isn't too icky for anyone.
On the day I got my braces off, they made the molds of my mouth for them, and I got to pick out what designs I wanted. You see, since most people getting retainers are of a different generation than I, cutesie designs are available. Apparently the younguns like that stuff.
You wouldn't even believe all the designs you can get. Here's my top retainer- it has a flower design on a green background. For some reason, the bottom one came out plain black. I thought I was getting some cool flames!
I had an exhausting but pretty good weekend. We had the step-kiddos, which always wears me out. Saturday was the oldest's Tang Soo Do test (a kind of Karate). It was okay- I didn't have to talk to their mom, though she decided to introduce herself to my mother, for some reason. The test took forever! We finally got out of there at 8pm and I took Mom and the kids out to get burgers afterwards.
Yesterday we went to the Hot Sauce Festival, which was soooo much fun, hot and exhausting. Amazingly, we had a bit better weather than we had the day of the Ice Cream Festival. ONLY in the 90s instead of the above 100's!!! We definitely felt some breezes during the day. We were there with the two step-kids, one girlfriend of a step kid, and the girlfriend's little brother. So there were six of us! Quite a crew.
I now have a fridge full of new and exciting hot sauce flavors.
How was your weekend?
The garden of the New Otani Hotel in Tokyo stands on the property that was once the primary yashiki (estate) of the great Sengoku period feudal lord, Katō Kiyomasa (1562-1611). Kiyomasa was a trusted retainer and general of Toyotomi Hideyoshi, the warlord who unified Japan in the wake of Oda Nobunaga’s assassination in 1582. Kiyomasa rose to fame during the battle of Shizugatake and soon found himself at the vanguard of many of Hideyoshi’s campaigns, including the invasion of Korea in 1592, in which Kiyomasa’s reputation as a master tactician, fierce fighter, castle builder and as a cruel man grew. To this day, the mere mention of Kiyomasa’s name in Korea is sure to bring a frown. Although loyal to the Toyotomi, if there was one thing that Kiyomasa hated more than Christianity and poor martial spirit among the samurai, it was Ishida Mitsunari, leader of the Western coalition of daimyo that opposed the rise of Tokugawa Ieyasu. It was this hatred of Mitsunari that drove Kiyomasa into the Tokugawa camp where he played a pivotal role in the Kyushu theatre of the Sekigahara campaign in 1600. As a result of his service, Kiyomasa was rewarded by becoming one of the elite daimyo who were allowed to build his Edo estate near the shogun’s castle in the upscale area that became known as Kioi-cho, named after the elite Kii Tokugawa, Owari Tokugawa and Ii daimyo families that kept their residences in this area.
As Kiyomasa was loyal to the house of Toyotomi and as a final showdown between the Tokugawa and Toyotomi grew, the Tokugawa began to have their doubts about where Kiyomasa’s ultimate loyalty rested. Fearful of having to face this fierce and influential warlord on the opposing side of the battlefield when the fighting would inevitably erupt in 1615, it has been suggested that the Tokugawa had him poisoned. Shortly after the fall of the Toyotomi, Kiyomasa’s son was accused of disloyalty (most likely a trumped up charge) and the family’s fief in Kumamoto, Kyushu was seized by the shogunate and the clan was abolished. Soon after this, the grounds of the Katō estate in Tokyo were given to the Ii family.
When the New Otani Hotel was constructed, it was decided to keep the traditional Japanese garden intact. Today the garden covers more than 10 acres and has over 800 trees, 10,000 flowering plants, ponds, a waterfall, and 42 stone lanterns, many of which date back from the Edo (1603-1868) and the Kamakura (1192-1333) periods.

SlabTek is a structurally suspended foundation system in which a flat slab is poured on the ground and is then raised to a desired height by the patent-pending SlabTek lifting mechanisms. The slab is secured by several drilled concrete piers that reach the structurally stable soils beneath the surface soils.
