Bike Art
« on: August 20, 2015, 05:32:32 PM »
I came across this wonderful sculpture in Reeth, North Yorkshire.  Look carefully and it is entirely made of bike parts.  It was inspired by the 2014 Grand Depart that passed through the village.  Anyone got other examples?

Looks great!  If I were being picky (as if!) I would have used some bright colourful paint somewhere in there.  Nevertheless great to this.  I wonder what I could do with all the odd bits and pieces in my garage.....

Yes, I did wonder where they got all the identical bits from, must be from a distributor somewhere. I agree about the spanners!
