So I got out in the garage to get the B on the road today. I should have stayed out. I started with checking that leak in the front carb. It wasn't there today. So I shortened the fuel line between t

I'd like to say I'm careful around curb checks. Potholes? In Minnesota? They're everywhere. Probably best to pass. And keep on dreaming. 10 years from now, I'll probably still have the rostyles. :-)
