It's really a plastic torture implement disguised to look like a
saddle. This bike is never ridden more than 10km non-stop so the
saddle hasn't ever bothered me. I took it off a little kids bike in
my friend Robert's bone-yard.
The Terry Damselfly Rossa saddle is pink.

The reflector on the Flamingo makes it street legal I guess. I can't
see a Flamingo as a pack animal though.
Nice job.

Now that you got me thinking about it, it might be able manage a
beverage holder.
Its neck is a handy place to store one of those vinyl covered, small
diameter, coiled cables and small padlock. I'm looking for one in
pink vinyl
>Nice job.
Thank you.
The bike regularly morphs through different configurations. The April
MC3 ride saw it with pink flowering cherry branches arching out from
the seat tube over the rear fender. Parked on the street surrounded
by a scattering pink peony petals it gave some people a little
unexpected enjoyment.

Love the pot! Can I borrow it for the Fremont Parade? I'd love to have a
"tea party" theme for the painting.

That's the Mk I model. I've since made a couple others that cover
more of the back of your head and then cut up over your brow like a
skate pot.
There's another model of kettle from a later era that incorporates
the spout and handle into one plastic piece. They're lighter weight,
sturdier and come in fetching colours like avocado or almond with a
wood grain plastic strip.

What size is your head--one quart, two quarts...?

That flamingo bike is absolutely wonderful. I've sent the link to my
daughters. Thanks for sharing!

That bike is a babe magnet. Without the decorations it's my favourite
bike for riding to the store because it's so easy to maneuver in and
out of the house.
It's geared like an adult bike. 80 rpm delivers 20 KmH. The bottom
14" of that seat post is doubled with a handlebar. The freshly
blooded shin-shredder pedals are camouflaged in girlie pink nail
polish. The decorations are mostly made from factory waste.
We're having "Velo Deco", a bike decorating weekend barbeque the
first weekend of June. We're providing materials and supplies for
casual workshops open to the public. We're inviting all ages to
decorate their bikes to celebrate Bike Month which is June here.
