It's Eric's World! Eric's World! Party time! Excellent!

Bike Junkyard
Finally cleared out the BIG pile of bikes, parts and madmax mutants that had been accumulating behind the house. Don't worry, I couldn't bring myself to check everything and did manage to hang onto a couple of the gems. :)
The tall bike attracts spectators like no other! Especially since you have to stop by grabbing the brakes on the lower bike with an incredible stretching routine or by using the front of your foot. Also, the chain likes to come off at inopportune times requiring you to always be ready to abandon ship with a moments notice.
It's pretty easy to round up another truckload of candidates... don't worry! Just need to mark it on the calendar. You're still the only person who's offered to ride the future super-tall bike though and I think we're going to be building that frame from scratch with big electrical conduit tubes. :)

That last one is the best. I imagine that was a pretty sweet ride.

Oh no!
I hope there are still enough parts around for the triple-decker...

Well at least you documented them...and now you can fit back in with the neighborhood.
