David and The Tall Bike... it has been roughly a year since David O La and I built the tall bikes which were used in the Dead City Alleycat!!!
David and Bruce The Legend
Bruce's first introduction to a tall bike
he had his apprehensions
fearing that Tall Bikes were difficult to ride
he quickly learned
Tall Bikes are EASY to Ride!
it is the starting and the stopping that may give the rider issue!
David is Creative and Fun!
the combination of David's welding background and his love of bikes made for a quick and easy project
really...
after we finished the first two Tall Bikes
I was ready to get our efforts going into ASSEMBLY LINE PROCESS
but...
we lost momentum
it is hard to believe that this was just ONE YEAR AGO
seems like a lifetime ago
just sent a text to David
been too long
maybe he will want to meet up for project or two
Productivity...
Projects in General...
Projects are an Excellent Anti-Depressant
being productive and creating a product work well to battle depression
I could use a project right now
David Hard at Work!
as a parent I learned something...
for a toy to be fun
and no... bikes are not toys
yet for metaphor sake I will continue with this line of logic
for a toy to be fun...
there are times when there need to be two toys
so that the person with the one toy
has a second toy so they can share that toy with and that experience with them
think...
how useful is a ball and glove?
to play catch a person needs two gloves and a ball
the Tall Bikes share this sentiment
which was a bummer...
I wanted David to leave with a Tall Bike of his own for his effort
but as said...
we lost momentum
two bikes done
with parts for a third
there are the thoughts of throwing my hat into the ring for another Dead City Alleycat
but
as fun as the Tall Bikes are...
it is important to not be repetitive
last two shots...
David test riding one of the Tall Bikes
and then
David doing some more fine tuning to the Tall Bike
GREAT SKILLS DAVID!
I hope this last year has been productive for you...
I hope that you have been making art
I hope you have been riding bikes
I hope you have been enjoying yourself
BE GOOD!
