I delivered a birthday present to a good friend yesterday using the Yuba, and I was accompanied by another dear friend in her Raleigh Twenty. The birthday-like nature of the event led us to going out to the pub for a few drinks, and the Yuba and Twenty were left behind at the end of the night. Today I used my Twenty to go to work on, and went over to pick up the other two bikes. the logical outcome was the Meta-Bike:
It wasn’t as hard to ride as I expected.
UPDATE: The blue Raleigh Twenty pictured is called Beatrix, now featuring in the new blog Beatrix and Me.
Jesus - what a bike!
ReplyDeleteNot that bad, even with two kids on the back too. Bet you got some funny looks !
ReplyDelete@Jim, I was getting some really odd looks but that was probably partly down to a loose mudguard stay on the Yuba making the bikes sound like a boat-engine.
ReplyDeleteHeheh brilliant :>)
ReplyDeleteHey Mr C, did I not spot a tweet of yours a few days ago about a new Twenty?
@ian, indeed you did, a friend has recently got a folding Twenty "Stowaway" and I stripped it down for a clean and ball bearing/ tube replacement. It should show up in a future post.
ReplyDeleteGreat - looking forward to reading about it :>)
