Sorry it took so long to update this (as if there's somebody who was patiently awaiting status of my bike), but here's what's going on with the John Deere bike now (who btw made a killing today after reporting their earnings):

Items added include:
-headlight
-two sets of tailights (you can one of them in the pic just above the back wheel...the black/red thing)
-huge computer (located right next to the light...big circular thing)
-water/gatorade/beer holder (located just behind the light)
-side mirror (turned out to be a godsend these days)
-rack (located just behind the seat)
-LED's on the tire air inserts
All accessories are flat black (as they damn well should be). I plan on elaborating on the drink holder once it warms up....I haven't really gotten around to using it yet. Ultimately, it will be a very useful beer holder for the beach.
Still to be installed? Well we need a cooler, SMV implement, the light blowtorch and a sound device. This all may or may not be one all-inclusive unit. A lot of that depends on how much help I get from Paddy.
Meanwhile, work progresses on the new Spokeeasy website. I have a lot of dynamic elements to get through, but I'm shooting for the weekend as completion date.
And while I'm on a biking tangent...can I mention that no matter what direction I cycle this time of year (which is obviously not an ideal time to cycle, but I got shit to do so shut the fuck up) wind is blowing in my face? What the fuck? You'd think since I'm riding predominately in the west loop the building would block the wind, but apparently not. I'm so happy about that I could just shit.
For the record, I was riding to swim practice...where coach decided to see how much fly I could actually handle. Came out to around 1000 yards.

I find this bicycle to be very bizzare. Very bizzare indeed. I peg you for more of a MTB guy. I just don't get it.
Thats something my 65 year old dad would think is cool.

Oh I got a mountain bike and a road bike...both of which I use pretty heavily...but this happens to be my project bike of the moment.
