Four years ago my sister, Miz M, bought me a modern-yet-retro bicycle, which I have yet to really ride. This Spring that changes! I shall be looking like Margaret Hamilton in The Wizard of Oz for sure! Other plan: to convert one of those kid bike trailers into a cool vardo-esque trailer for hauling my groceries and good vegees from our wonderful summer farmer's markets.
That image - retro-bike and funky trailer - calls up the whole notion of Funny Bikes!
