O'Neill High School

The final bike in the transportation class custom bicycle project was another made my Mr. Salvia. This one features two 24x1.95-inch wheels in the front, and a 26x1.95-inch wheel in the back and it can be difficult to ride. A student also helped with this bike, which Mr. Salvia calls “The Transporter.” William Neske took it all apart for Mr. Salvia, painting and greasing all parts before putting it back together. Mr. Salvia said the bike works well on flat surfaces at a medium speed. Over rough terrain, it could be a little sketch. He would recommend the bike in a factory setting as it could be ridden and carry items in the basket. Eli Jones was also working on a second design that features three wheels. It still needs work and some re-designing, but he will be working that out in the future. The kick bicycle is called “Whatchamacallit.” A great job by all involved with these two bikes! #WeAreWalton #WaltonCSD #WaltonPride

Frank Brown’s kick bicycle is the next in line for the transportation class custom bicycle project. This was made from parts of many bicycles and he designed and fabricated it. The bike has four wheels: two 20x2.125-inch wheels, and two center support 6-inch wheels. It also has BMX handlebars. The bike length is 85 inches! His favorite part is the long frame and he calls the bike “Crazy.” Very nice work! #WeAreWalton #WaltonCSD #WaltonPride

Wishing the best of luck to Carter McNamara, Hayden Robinson, and Peyton Tweedie as they proudly represent the Walton Trap Team at the upcoming National Trapshooting Competition in Mason, Michigan this weekend!

Malachi Barringer’s bike for the transportation class custom bicycle project is made from parts of three bicycles. He designed and fabricated it alongside Killian McGowan. The bike has a 27-inch front wheel and fork, and a 20-inch wheel on the back. It also features custom handlebars and an adjustable seat post. He said he feels the bike is difficult to ride because of the large front wheel, so you have to start out slow to get used to it. His favorite part of the bike is the front wheel and he calls it “Big Wheel.” That is a great bike! #WeAreWalton #WaltonCSD #WaltonPride

Hayden Coons is showing off his bike “Black Hawk” as part of the transportation class custom bicycle project. This is a kick-type scooter and is made from parts of four bicycles. He did all the work to design, fabricate, as well as paint and grease it. The bike has a 16x2.125-inch front wheel, two 7-inch wheels on the back, BMX handlebars with a custom grab bar attached, and a frame length of about 40 inches. His favorite part is the grab bar. Great work! #WeAreWalton #WaltonCSD #WaltonPride

Killian McGowan’s bike for the transportation class custom bicycle project was made from parts of two tricycles, and parts of other bicycles. He designed and fabricated it. The long tricycle-style bike has an 11-inch front wheel, two 6.5-inch wheels on the back, and a 61-inch frame. He also needed to use a piece of angle iron for the extra strength for the center of the frame. His favorite part is the curved seat and he calls his bike “The Pink Panther.” Another outstanding bike! #WeAreWalton #WaltonCSD #WaltonPride

At the end of the school year, the Class of 2023 took the senior trip to Philadelphia and Hershey Park! A fantastic time to end the year! See more photos on our Facebook page! #WeAreWalton #WaltonCSD #WaltonPride

Jeff Shelton’s bicycle for the transportation class custom bicycle project was made from parts of four bikes. He designed, fabricated, took it apart, painted and greased all areas. The bike features an 18-inch front fork, custom handlebars, a 45-inch chain, and an adjustable seat post. He welded the joints together and it has 16x2.00 tires. His favorite part is the custom handlebars. The bike is called Chop and the chopper-style bike is fun to ride. Jeff plans to hang the bike in his shop in the future. Fantastic work! #WeAreWalton #WaltonCSD #WaltonPride

Here is another group of seniors for the Class of 2023! #WeAreWalton #WaltonCSD #WaltonPride

Peter DeBrock is showing off his bicycle “Different,” which is part of the transportation class custom bicycle project. This was made using parts from four different bikes. Peter designed and fabricated it, then took it apart, painted it and greased all areas. The bike has a 24x1.95 front tire, a 16x1.75 back tire, BMX handlebars, an adjustable seat post, a back-rim frame fender, and a 35-inch chain. His favorite part is the front wheel, and the hardest part of the build was making the frame. Excellent job! #WeAreWalton #WaltonCSD #WaltonPride

Our next batch from the Class of 2023! #WeAreWalton #WaltonCSD #WaltonPride

Joe Bolster is showing off his bike as part of the transportation class custom bicycle project. The mountain bar handlebars are his favorite part of the design because of the style. The bike was built using parts from a few bicycles. Joe added a larger chain sprocket, and he extended the frame. He also used a front fork from a larger frame. The bike has 20-inch wheels and he calls it “Shadow Rider.” Nice job! #WeAreWalton #WaltonCSD #WaltonPride

Elijah Jones is the next creation in the transportation class custom bicycle project. This bike is called “Yucko,” named after a famous clown. Elijah said the bike fits him well and the paint job is his favorite part of the build. The bike was put together using parts from seven bikes! The wheel size is 12.5 x 1.75, and it has a chain length of 63 inches. The seat also has a quick adjustment in two places on the bike. Awesome work! #WeAreWalton #WaltonCSD #WaltonPride

Please join us as we celebrate our next group from the Class of 2023! #WeAreWalton #WaltonCSD #WaltonPride

Congratulations to the high school May Students of the Month! #WeAreWalton #WaltonCSD #WaltonPride

The next bike in the transportation class project of creating custom bicycles comes from Logan Beardslee. His tricycle creation is called “Extend.” He said the seat post addition is his favorite part of the design, because he was able to attach it to a more comfortable seat. The bike was built using parts from three bicycles. Because of the front pedals, it has forward and reverse, as well as a 12-inch solid wheel in the front, and two solid 7-inch wheels in the back. Another nice piece of work! #WeAreWalton #WaltonCSD #WaltonPride

Here is our next group to celebrate for the Class of 2023! #WeAreWalton #WaltonCSD #WaltonPride
