Is it a bird?
« on: 02 May, 2015, 12:32:43 am »
Got tired of looking at the trike feeling sad for itself while it waits for it's bar linkage to be rewelded. So I thought I'd let it fly and then remembered just how pretty it actually is. As shitty as Challenge customer service might be, they do build a pretty bike*. I might replace the bungees with fishing line to give it that floating look at some point.












* It looks an awful lot prettier in person that what my phone can capture.
