Austin, TX

As expected, Austin had some great bikes in it.


Tallbike with fucking antlers!!!


Excellent cargobike make from shitty bikes. The basket is so cool because the guy is a furniture builder by trade.


Sick DIY stretch bike.


Window washer's trike.


I love these old cargobikes.


Some recumbent. Check out the handlebar setup.


Ice cream trikes are everywhere in Austin.

Orlando, FL


I know it's a bad picture, but take a good look. Note how the seat-post tubes are connected. The new seat-post (threaded pipe) is held on with hose-clamps and everything is secured with with fuckin' fiberglass!! This was sitting in the carport at Mooj's house when I stayed there.


This was in the carport, too. Unfortunately it is short two wheels and a crankset. Oh well.


Another one that was out in the carport. Why weren't any of these bikes in use?


Brakeless fixie MTB at the same house. I rode this one a fair bit. Very nice.


Mooj's Pake fixed gear with a very large MTB front wheel.

Schwinn Replica Low Rider on CL Huntsville

My friend, Brian, bought this one.  It's got high-spoke-count radial wheels, velour banana seat, fenders, apehangers.  It's fuckin' rad.  I rode it today.  I've never ridden a lowrider before, and i hadn't expected the fork to feel so wierd.  It's like it turns in the middle of the bike instead of the front.  Also, the crank arms are incredibly short.

Crazy Lowriders



















































Here is a great site with plenty of crazy-ass lowriders.  I don't really understand this culture of cyclists, but I love to look at what they do.  These bike seem almost unridable, but they are cool.
