Nice score! One of these years, I should go to the police auction. But damn. Already have so many of the bikes.

It was pretty much about 100 Magnas (all selling for between $5-15. if you have a kid who doesn't care what they ride, this is a bike for the cost of a starbucks coffee!) and about 5 classic Schwinns, plus about 4 really nice bikes. The most expensive one went for $300 and had a billionty nice components (disk breaks, wheel set, shifters, derailers, pedals, cranks, all of it).

I have a question for you about the Birchwood racing. You should send me an email at agelbach at gmail dot com.

Other method is to bake in shallow pan with water at same temperature. One will be creamier one will be more roastier.*

Next, gather ingredients for risotto. I used about 1 cup of Arborio rice. Start a pot of vegetable stock, about 3 cups. Then, find a bottle of crap white wine, perhaps an old bottle that's sitting in the door of your fridge, 2/3 gone but you have no plans to ever drink the remaining 1/3. Or, go to Trader Joes and buy the $3 Chardonnay. But, you need at least 1/4 bottle for this. Then, gather some vegetables: a leek, some mushrooms, garlics. Slice the leeks and mushrooms, use garlic press on the garlics. Have a bottle of olive oil and some salt and pepper. Lastly, get some hard cheese, such as parmesan, pecorino, reggiano, whatevs. Microplane a ( ... )
