Bastard bikes to be kept away from home

Hello. This will be a log of the building of a couple of cheap bikes, to keep at my parents places. My dad lives in the flattest part of Denmark - I'll stash a steel singlespeed there. My mom lives in one of the hillier parts - I'll keep a geared aluminium bike there.
Both bikes will be build from stuff lying around the house. I'm quite confident that my hoarding skills means that I'll have everything I need.
First of is the singlespeed:
The frame is allegedly a Peugeot Richard Virenque. Unknown year, tubing etc. One of the previous owners have removed the gear bosses and gear hanger and painted it quite badly.

The headset was missing a washer and a locknut(?). A quick look in a box under my desk labelled 'Headsets', gave my half a headset identical to one already on the bike. Odd.

The bearings didn't look to bad, so I gave them a quick clean and regrease, and reassembled. The steerer is a bit too long, and I couldn't find a 5 mm 1" spacer anywhere, so that's on the list of things to get.

A quick rummage through the basement, produced a couple of wheels. A Velocity Deep V on an One-On track hub and a Mavic Open Sport laced radially to a Shimano HB-2200. The rear runs nice and smooth, even after a couple of years of daily abuse - The front is slightly crunchy, even though it's never been used. They are actually the first and second of my wheelbuild attempts.

Found a pair of handlebars and a way too short stem, and this is as far as I'll get tonight.

Stayed in bed, sorted the work inbox, and then went hunting for a crankset. Found a Shimano RX100 fitted with a 44 tooth Sugino Messenger and some Shimano SPD-SL's. Didn't look too good, but pedals spun freely, and the teeth on the chainring weren't too worn:

Sheldons chainline guide states that Shimano double cranksets use a 43,5 mm chainline, which puts the outer at 46 mm. According to the bottom bracket size guide on the same site, the RX100 A550 crankset uses a 113 mm bottom bracket. The rear wheel has a 42 mm chainline, so I'd like to move the crankset 4 mm inwards (actually a bit more, since the Messenger chainring is 1/8"). The bottom bracket box delivered a used, but smooth 107 mm Shimano UN-54 missing a cup. Found a used plastic one that'll do. The chainline will be around 1-1,5 mm off, which I can live with...

Looking for the crankset, I also found a couple of brake calipers and levers: 2 Shimano RX100 rear brakes with new or just slightly used brake pads. They are almost too nice for this bike, but will do for now. A bag full of (too) long brake nuts and a couple of RX100 brake levers also surfaced, along with a new Clarks universal brake cable.

There's a hillier part of Denmark?

Heh, yeah. We don't get long climbs, but there are some short, steep ones around in the eastern part of Denmark. Usually around half a kilometre long. http://climbs.dk/filter003.htm

Wish i had more stuff just "around" the place. Hope both your builds work out.

Spent a bit of time today on the bike:

The bars should probably be angled down a bit, but right now give a flat top, plus they help compensate a bit for the short stem. Only a bit of cable trimming, a nut for the front brake and some bartape left.

Nice Genesis Flyer!
