It's finally getting nice enough in my neck of the woods and get out an do some bike riding. This week I have posted a picture of a bike I saw a young man riding downtown last summer and I had to stop him and ask if I could take a picture of it. This is a project he has been working on for several years. He sends away to California for these gold parts he has put on this bike. He still has more to do but it is looking close to completion. More then the bike though- was the way he rode it down the sidewalks with his nose in the air looking for all the world like he "owned" it, you know what I mean? lol He was a great! And by the way- isn't the spare tire on the back awesome?!

That is a pretty cool bike! Not only does it have a spare tire, but also a rear-view mirror and a horn :) heh, that's nifty.
ReplyDeleteAwesome indeed!
ReplyDeleteOh, that's an incredible bike! And great that you got to snap the photo....
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting my blog...those tupperware sorters had just come out shortly before this family moment.
Wow, that bike is something else!
ReplyDeleteThat is by far one of the most unusual bikes I've ever seen!
ReplyDeleteI'm digging the blue banana seat.
ReplyDeleteI love the spare tire! Did he say why he was constructing his golden bike??
ReplyDeleteCool bike! I'm sure he loved the attention.
ReplyDeleteI've never seen anything quite like that before. That guy has a career as a designer ahead of him.
ReplyDeleteI had never either! So unique!
ReplyDelete@Trish- I know, right! The rear view mirror is cool!
ReplyDelete@Laurel- my mom used to sell Tupperware so I picked that right out
@Lee- The banana seat has pimp appeal lol
@Mary- no he never said and I didn't think to ask
@Marie- he did love the attention and was more than happy to talk about it
Thanks everyone for popping in to say hello!
