I've seen those two tall bikes before -- they came from the same workshop.

The orange one is a "mutandem" (there's a second seat lower down) and was made by Cycling WMD.

The black and red one was built by this guy Lyle who also designs components.

Check out the stockings and socks on the girl in the last photo. What a mess.

Yeah leave them over night chained to any pole. In the morning the rims will be bent.

Regarding JDS's photo, if that person is wearing a champion ribbon bike cap at the same time as a fanny pack, red denim shorts, and Keds...I think the bike-ocalypse is upon us.

Sell your Pistas, hipsters, the time of reckoning is nigh.

I was wondering why I saw a bunch of bicycles on display outside this building in Windsor Terrace. I thought they were for sale or something.
