Winter Project 1 - Peugeot Race Bike

November 24, 2014

Honda Trail First Start

Honda Trail Update

September 24, 2014

I shifted focus back to my mopeds for a bit so that I could have them all ready for TOTFEST. So the Honda Trail has been on the back-burner for a bit. Aside from the acorns and mouse habitat removal it's gotten a full tear…
