Re: vintage photos
Great, great Grandfather on his Indian where he lived in Atlantic City. Maybe someone can help me identify this bike?
EDIT: Finally figured it out. It's a 1917-19 Indian O with a horizontally opposed twin-cylinder motor.

Re: vintage photos
quit whining John, here's an old picture for ya.
Too old?, or should I post this on the thread with the police bikes?
Ridden in Waukesha Wisconsin by R.P. Franke about 1910, we think.

Re: vintage photos
This might be a picture of a couple of linemen from the Power Company trying to get to work this morning after the snowstorm they had in Wisconsin last night. Is that John's '55 in front of the other 2 pans?

Re: vintage photos

what a storm! i drove for 2 hours to go about 40 miles! that was at 4 am.
i'm just glad to be home with a beer in my hand.
