I forgot to mention this gem. It's kind of my favorite right now. I thought it might actually motivate me to go outside for something beside working all day.

I counted and I'm only sitting on 30 some odd bicycles now. Think I am just going to get them out one at a time and clean them up so I can start next year with all of them rideable again.

Step right up and witness the incredible transformation brought to life by a master craftsman (Meanwhile At Bad Idea Central) for a family in need! Picture this: a bespoke custom bike meticulously designed to enable a family with a differently abled child to attend events with greater ease. The sheer creativity and ingenuity of the maker shines through his work, a true testament to his skill and dedication. Having marveled at his craftsmanship at multiple Ratrodtober shows, it's no wonder we are consistently awestruck by his unique and awe-inspiring creations.

Join us in celebrating this extraordinary bike maker and the meaningful impact his talents have on those around him. Share the joy, spread the word, and come witness innovation in action on Saturday, October 12 at TUPPS Brewery!

Judges are funny sometimes, I entered the Campus Queen and Fire Arrow in custom bicycle just to get another T-shirt for Kate thinking my tandem with sidecar was "the one "and they won. To be fair they are a little more polished than Lola's bad idea but it was a crowd favorite for sure. BK42 Cycles
