This [drunk] homeless guy decided to make the race marker cones his own personal hijacked shopping cart slalom course during a crit race this summer. Epic.
The Crimson Cycle is a marvel of modern technology. It is extremely fast, maneuverable, and can handle a variety of different terrain due to it's large tires. The sleek design of the Crimson Cycle allows the rider to virtually become part of the bike adding to it's aerodynamically streamlined profile. The Crimson Cycle allows for the Crimson Cloak to quickly get himself from one disaster to the next with relative ease and speed.
Fourth wall: This bike is over a year old. I'm just finally getting around to posting it. Obviously, the design for the bike is inspired heavily by the Batpod from "The Dark Knight" just as the Crimson Cloak himself is inspired by Batman. However, for the design of the CC, I was looking for a beefier more muscled look than the Batpod.

When last we visited our old locale we bought a "his and hers" pair of bicycles from our old neighbours. That was in October. The winter intervened and, apart from a couple of try-outs on the paths near our house, I haven't used mine until today. As I type I'm still aching and my legs are wobbly when I go up and down the stairs. And my sit-upon, well...
Is this what's known as a "mountain bike"? As long as the wheels go round when I pedal it's all the same to me. On the frame (and again on the saddle) it says "Exodus", in letters resembling those used by "urban artists" when they spray their grafitti designs on railway rolling-stock. I'm not sure why. On the rear forks it says "Havoc" ...again for no very clear reason.
The area where I now live is heavily wooded, and the woods are publicised as a kind of playground for cyclists. This would be alright if the woods were worth cycling in, but really they're not woods at all, bearing much the same relationship to real forest that a potato field does to an alpine meadow, or a salmon hatchery to a mountain torrent. They are just commercial timber production units. I always wonder when some boffin will come up with the idea of selectively breeding the trees so that they grow with square trunks that can be efficiently sawn into planks of uniform size, without wastage. The trees, all of alien coniferous species producing a dense canopy, march across these sandy heaths in straight lines, only a few feet apart. Nothing grows on the lightless forest floor. Even in the rides and clearings there is nothing more interesting than gorse or heather. But of course, I consume paper and need furniture like everyone else, and want them readily available at a reasonable price. Life is full of contradictions.
Here the Bentos steed is parked next to an information board ...close relative of the "interpretive" boards we see dotted about in "managed" countryside wherever, as Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty, or Special Scientific Interest, nature has become part of the bureaucratic system and leisure a function of the welfare state. So it was off on the "blue" route for me. Luckily there was a sort of cut-off half way around, allowing you to return to your starting point by a short cut.
On the last Friday every March at NUI Maynooth Student’s Union, cyclists mount their bikes heading for Eyre Square Galway (well over 100 miles away). More volunteers follow them. Last year (2011), they raised over €83,500 for Pieta House.
The set of photographs here were taking at Moyvalley in Co. Kildare - and just a mile or so from the border with Co. Meath. The cyclists are about an hour into their journey from Maynooth. The wonderful morning sunrise in the east means that some of the shots of the cyclists as they approach are rather shadowy. But the shots of the cycle bunch (the peleton) as the cycle westwards, towards the next village of Clonard and town of Kinnegad, are very impressive.
