Bike Project

I've been away from blogging the last couple days working on a project: building a bike. So far I've gathered the frame, handlebars, and brakes, but still need to track down a seat, crank/pedals, and wheels. The big work lately has been preparing the frame.
A good blogger would have taken a "before" picture, but a good blogger I am not. Instead you get a brief description: white with TONS of stickers. I spent about three hours yesterday cleaning, shaving off the stickers, sanding, and applying primer to end up with what you see above. The first color coat was slated for today, but The Rain decided to stop by for a visit (bleck), so it's a waiting game. Once the color is applied I'll post an update.
