Summer is almost here! I browsed colorful beach cruisers over the weekend. All hues, pink, peachy coral, mauve, you name it.
Post pictures of your beach cruiser! :cool:

Oh I wish! I would die for a Wasabi!
I wish I had one for frequent trips to Port A. We rented some last fall when we went and had a blast. We plan on renting them again in two weeks.
I found her in my parents' garage...

Perhaps I'll bring it out to our garden for its own photo shoot too! We can work on a theme (since there's no beach around here)......
Here's my yard sale find.... $11 (plus considerably more having it made rideable again (eeeek! No brakes!! :eek:!). I used the Schwinn Serial number chart from OldRoads to place the bike to 1982 (I think).
The bike is actually a bear to ride. It's a tank (and I've grown used to a featherweight bike and a freewheel cassette...no back cranking to position your leg to start up with this thing). I actually can't ride it up my driveway from a stop...and I don't have a steep driveway. :o
It really needs a dead-flat path to shine. Sadly, my rolling neighborhood is not the place for it. But it is cool, tho......

Ooh, it's darling - candy apple red and all those swoops and curves! Great find!

I sat on a beautiful bright pink Electra Townie 3 at REI today. The price tag: $410.
From Craigslist, $300:

I LOVE the Electra: tooooo cool! I get a compliment on her every single time I take her out!

The one I'm on is a Townie Electra 3 speeds. The grey one is a Marin, one speed. Awesome bikes! I wish we had a pair, but really in this city (Vancouver) they are not practical unless you live on the beach directly...
While not technically a beach cruiser, i have ridden this on the beach. The one in front (the FairLady) is mine and the rear one is the BF's. I think they are both either late 60s or early 70s if i remember correctly...
