bike eyes

i see bikes everywhere.

bike brains

not sure who to credit for this awesome graphic. if you know, please share. the quote reads, *the computer is like a bicycle for our brains*, but I prefer to interpret the meaning as, *bikes on brain*. I certainly do have them on mine.

Reindeer Bike

Everyone knows reindeer fly. This close up of one in the wild makes it that much more clear why. Happy flying friends as you pedal into another year.

I am Wonder Woman

Mike Joos is a cyclist and an awesome artist. He's done a series of superheroes on bikes, superheroes as cats, and other lovely culture morphs. I am the wonder woman pictured here and that is my bike.

Ramona for Bike Drawings

Ever since I found the blog, Bike Drawings a few weeks ago, I've been excited about sending in a submission. I've been doodling bikes for years, amongst other things like anthropomorphic animals. So rather than sketch up something new, I started thumbing through some old notebooks and voila, Look Ma No Hands. My art is usually a bit dark and cynical, can you tell? So here's your wheelright preview, let's see if this ends up on the site. :)

Riding Indoors

This lovely photo is of Jean Claude Brialy and Anna Karina, in Paris of course, from the site Rides A Bike- photos of famous people on bikes. I love this shot in all its frenchness and I love the idea of riding indoors, in open spaces with wood floors. My apartment is 24 feet long and I can ride a revolution or so in a straight line before I run out of space. What if I had an old converted warehouse type space where I could ride in circles and figures eights? Parties would certainly be more fun.

This may be a bit abstract, but nothing seems to sum up the holiday season for me more than this shot from Shanghai, a KFC delivery bicycle.  Bienvenido DoS Milonce, te espero.

Autumn Baiku: Only Bike

streets swoosh, silent but for few

whisky warms wet soul
