Thank you Sutton, for this and so many other urban sculptures in the form of surreal cycling farcilities.



Ah, but I bet you're glad the bin is there, as it's saving you from hitting this bollard: ::-)

Is it just me that's sniggering at the thought of Metrorod being called out to deal with the grapes?

I hadn't noticed that - I just wanted a vehicule to show that it's a one way street, so riding on the road is not much of an option at that point.

I imagine the Grapes will be, er, well rodded by now :o

I have an ex GF who works at the department of pavement engineering at Notts uni, they help guide policy on this kind of thing nationwide. She is a nutbar bunny boiler though so none of the above surprised me. I may have to delete this post for legal reasons...
