    That flamingo bike is absolutely wonderful. I've sent the link to my
    daughters. Thanks for sharing!

    Love the pot! Can I borrow it for the Fremont Parade? I'd love to have a
    "tea party" theme for the painting.

    I'm going to watch for one at the various thrift stores and flea markets.
    What size is your head--one quart, two quarts...?

    That bike is a babe magnet. Without the decorations it's my favourite
    bike for riding to the store because it's so easy to maneuver in and
    out of the house.

    It's geared like an adult bike. 80 rpm delivers 20 KmH. The bottom
    14" of that seat post is doubled with a handlebar. The freshly
    blooded shin-shredder pedals are camouflaged in girlie pink nail
    polish. The decorations are mostly made from factory waste.

    We're having "Velo Deco", a bike decorating weekend barbeque the
    first weekend of June. We're providing materials and supplies for
    casual workshops open to the public. We're inviting all ages to
    decorate their bikes to celebrate Bike Month which is June here.

    That's the Mk I model. I've since made a couple others that cover
    more of the back of your head and then cut up over your brow like a
    skate pot.

    There's another model of kettle from a later era that incorporates
    the spout and handle into one plastic piece. They're lighter weight,
    sturdier and come in fetching colours like avocado or almond with a
    wood grain plastic strip.

    The reflector on the Flamingo makes it street legal I guess. I can't
    see a Flamingo as a pack animal though.

    Nice job.

    Now that you got me thinking about it, it might be able manage a
    beverage holder.

    Its neck is a handy place to store one of those vinyl covered, small
    diameter, coiled cables and small padlock. I'm looking for one in
    pink vinyl

    Thank you.

    The bike regularly morphs through different configurations. The April
    MC3 ride saw it with pink flowering cherry branches arching out from
    the seat tube over the rear fender. Parked on the street surrounded
    by a scattering pink peony petals it gave some people a little
    unexpected enjoyment.

    Where did you find a pink saddle?

    It's really a plastic torture implement disguised to look like a
    saddle. This bike is never ridden more than 10km non-stop so the
    saddle hasn't ever bothered me. I took it off a little kids bike in
    my friend Robert's bone-yard.

    The Terry Damselfly Rossa saddle is pink.
