You ever tried to ride one of those crazy things? I have. There’s a STEP welded to the frame so that you can step up and get into the seat and reach the pedals! You have to start the thing moving and leap onto it in motion! Crazy design. just… nuts.
Once upon a time, I painted a mural for a really good bike shop locally. It’s sixty feet long, eight feet high, and eight feet off the floor. Also, it has Lance Armstrong on it, and one of his bikes hanging right in front of a full sized matching illustration of the same bike. It’s kinda cool. I included every kind of bike I could think of- BMX, road bikes, mountain bikes, cruisers, hybrids, cyclocross, even kids bikes including those chopper-looking things that went through a vogue a few years ago. And unicycles, of course. It was fun.
