Jeez, Mike, how many bikes do you have in various states of disassembly? How do you keep track of all the parts or even remember where they go ??

But I imagine sometimes he thinks this way. An awful thought to go thru.
Can't say I always enjoy good memories of things I can never do again. But... could be worse, not reaching that point, not all bad at the tribal elder stage.

Not counting a gas tank removed and in the house to keep dry, and 2 seats from the shed bikes so squirrels don't get at them, just 3 that have parts removed. Each of the three is from a different country with big differences in mechanical religion, so I could throw all the parts in a pile and probably pick out the ones for each bike pretty easily. But they have separate boxes and shelves, I don't mix them. If I leave the picture any time soon, my oldest grandson can leave his video games for a while, go through the parts and maintenance manuals to identify the parts I didn't 'cause I know what they are, and ebay the parts, probably get more than I paid for them. It's possible he could finish them, too, except for the tour glide, has done some wrenching already. He'd have to get a bit advanced to handle the Tour Glide and figure out which replacement parts to get - I'm not ordering most of the parts till I'm ready to put them on.

Afternoon Woods! Had 'family time' taking down the last of Christmas lights. We were waiting on an extension ladder instead of borrowing from neighbors every time. Settling in now with a drink and watching the AFC championship game.
