I had this big email all typed out regarding how you can do the website and get page to page...then sheldon said it best. follow his links and advice. so I will condense.

This isn't totally off topic as there are plenty of folks out there who want to display there bikes and may want to do a website as well. So I will give a briefing on how I found best to do it on the cheap. I use godaddy.com and obtain my webaddress. http://www.fixedgearhooligans.com and then I use the "masking" option on the site to refer that domain name to my actual hosting address which is http://users.penn.com/~retro/fixed.htm (cost about $15-20 for 2 years service) and I use the free space that I am allotted through my ISP provider (Earthlink in my case which gives me 10 different email address options and 10mb of webspace per email address, $21.95 per month for isp service) to host my pages and pics. I use free wsftp to do the file transfer. It is downloadable from the net for free, I use the free version of frontpage to build my web pages and that is it. I just nibbed around to build the pages. Nothing fancy about my site, really simple actually. I am sure there are even more simple ways out there.
