GRR, Chili, and a DeliverCycle…

After I left the plant today, I took the long way home…up Highway 39, over to the East Fork Road, and then home on Glendora Ridge Road.  I was in the Corvette, and it was a great drive.   That car is awesome, and in those tight corners, it was a real delight.  I promised a few photos, and here they are…

I especially like the last photo above.  It shows the actual “ridge” in Glendora Ridge Road, and it exactly captures the essence of this great road.  I once wrote an article about it for Motorcycle Classics magazine (the best motorcycle magazine in the world, if I do say so myself).   You know, GRR has more than 200 curves in 12 miles.  Like I said, it’s awesome.

After the ride, I stopped at the Mt. Baldy Lodge for a bowl of their great chili, and because I had the camera with me, I grabbed a shot of that, too…

I can guess what you’re thinking, and the answer is yes…it tasted as good it looked!

Hey, more good news…with our growth into the new facility, we’ve got a bunch of bikes Steve is going to blow out like he did in a few sales we’ve had before.  We just don’t have room to store these earlier development bikes.   Any one of them would make a great project for someone wanting to get into the CSC lifestyle at a lower cost.   They’ll be going up on the CSC Classifieds in the next week or two, but in the meantime, give us a call if you want to get a jump on these deals.   Here’s a sneak peak at what’s going on the chopping block…

Oh, and that original Mustang basket case DeliverCycle I mentioned earlier?   Well, the Boss is going to sell it, and I think what’s he’s asking is way too low based on what I learned about these when I wrote the Mustang article for Motorcycle Classics.  The DeliverCycle will be going on the block in a week or two, too, but in the meantime here’s some eye candy…

Steve gave me a bit of info on the DeliverCycle, and like I said, it’s going up on our Classifieds board (on the www.CSCMotorcycles.com site) in a few more days.   It’s truly a basket case, and it’s almost complete…all of the hard to find things are there.   It’s an original main frame, a super nice stainless front end, the rear end is complete, and the motor seems to be in good shape (it turns over with good compression).  The tranny is all there.  We’re not sure of the year, but the engine number is S52C89 (somebody out there will know).  It would make for a great project for someone who wants to build a DeliverCycle, and all of the parts in the pictures above will go with it.

That’s it for now, boys and girls…
