I want to build a recumbent bike

While searching for what to do with old bikes besides fix 'em up and ride them (something I love to do but already have enough of them), I found a site where a guy shows how to build your own recumbent. That's my goal.

On Saturday I scored two donor bikes for free, so I'm ready to get going. Here are the donors:

From Recumbent Bike Project


Now, this could take a while. I don't know how to weld, so I'll either have to learn or get someone to do the welding for me. I did get a hacksaw yesterday so I can start cutting the frames up and getting the pieces ready.

Next posts will be about the disassembly of donor bikes.
