Bike Love

Chris is what most would call a bike enthusiast. That might be a bit of an understatement when you live amidst the numerous bicycles that he builds, repairs, sells, and collects, but either way it's a passion that is rather contagious and I have learned to truly love and admire his hobby. Below are two of my favorites, one is his and the other is my cute little cycle that he fixed up.

This is a Raleigh R2 Rampar. Two years ago Chris was in an unfortunate bike accident and the bike was pretty much totaled. But he spent a great amount of time fixing it up and now it is SO beautiful! It's a lovely rusty orange/red color (he actually borrowed my nail polish to fix up the scratches from his crash) and now it looks brand spankin' new.



It looks sexy from behind too...


My bike is a women's white Peugeut. Chris wrapped the handlebars in beautiful old leather and twine, and added rad little peace sign brake cable yokes:
