Old Ten Speed Of The Month: July 2010

Thanks to all the voters of this month’s OTSOTM. It appears the new polling script worked like a champ.

Congratulations to the entries of the OTSOTM for July 2010. All but one entry managed at least one vote this month for a total of 56 votes. I was a bit surprised to see which OTS couldn’t even manage one vote. Surely Bob H’s ’77 Schwinn Sierra was deserving of at least ONE?

Winner with 9 votes (17%)

George J’s 1980 Trek 710

Runner-up with 7 votes (13%)

Don S’s Schwinn Sports Tourer

Honorable Mention(s) (a 6-way tie) with 4 votes (8%)

Keith’s 1986 Schwinn World

theEgoist’s 1960s Carlton Catalina

Patrick’s 1975 Columbia Lexington

Peter D’s 1980s Schwinn World Sport

Scott F’s 1974 Schwinn Le Tour

Everett K’s Early 70s Unidentified Old 10-Speed

Happy Easter and Happy OTSG Calendar Weekend!

I finally got some time to sit down and whip up some 2010-2011 OTSG Calendars, and right in time for riding season!

We’ve got some really nice looking bikes and some really nice looking photography to go along with some of my favorite old and crappy.

Just like last year, these are DIY PDF calendars and print straight to your 8.5×11 scrap paper. They’re 13 month calendars just to buy me a little extra time next year.

2010-11 OTSG DIY Calendar Small (7.6mb)

2010-11 OTSG DIY Calendar Large (26.8mb)

I will have a Jpeg Desktop Wallpaper version available shortly.

Cameron P’s Cycl-O-Tread 2000

I love to ride a bike, but I also enjoy a nice run.
Too often I have had to forsake one for the other, but not anymore!

Enter the Cycl-O-Tread 2000!

Official OTSG T-Shirt Pre-Order Poll

It’s official. OTSG will soon have not so crappy T-shirts available for purchase for a very reasonable $15 +shipping.  I’d like to get an idea of the interest out there, so please “vote” on the poll below for the size you prefer (only if you’re interested in purchasing).  Details to follow.

Happy Blogaversary!

2 YEARS AND COUNTING!

January 22, 2008 we began this little adventure into Meh! Two years, 508 posts, 1566 comments, 300,000+ visits, 200,000 unique visitors, 153 countries, dozens of gems, and lots of crap later we show no slowing or stopping. Here’s to another year of boundless enthusiasm for that which most discard and disregard.

Your host and biggest fan,

Cameron
