Default Thanks for all the help

Wouldn't have been able to rebuild this bike had it not been for this forum and the help I received here. Haven't driven it yet, maybe you can see why!! The snow arrived April 18, Spokes don't you miss this?!
Don't have a before pic but it looked fairly good. Hope I have a picture attached, my memory about putting things back together is about as bad as remembering how to post a picture.

Very nice ... she's perfect! It looks like she has knobby tires, so give the snow a try!

Yeah, I got a fresh few inches of snow last night here in northern Michigan. This winter doesn't seem to want to leave.

Thanks for posting the pic - very nice.

Awesome pic. That bike looks great against the snow. We just can't get the beach sand to drift like that down here in FL....

Cool picture, the bike is looking great in white.

I'm starting to look at my blue 63 C95 again after having a bit of a break with a house move and new baby. I drop in on this forum often and enjoy the great rebuilds and friendly advice.

Will one day post some pictures and give some feedback on a downunder C95 build when I get a few jobs out of the way and find time to sneak off to the garage. I've been collecting parts from the U.S via Ebay for a while so I suppose its time soon that they got bolted to something. I've done two total rebuilds so far on a C50 and C102 so am expecting this just to be a bigger version with an extra cylinder :-)
