Zeit-Bike Tacoma

Mrs. TBR and I went downtown to see the locally-made Zeit-Bike bicycle sculptures on display at the Tacoma Art Museum.  Our timing was perfect and we found the artists riding their artistic contraptions around Tollefson Plaza during a break in the drenching rain showers we've been having all day.




Two of the three artists even offered test-rides to the by-standers.  I rode one with a trailer wheel-powered fan that inflated the large plastic wind sock on the back.  Brilliant.



There's still plenty of Bike Month left.  More Tacoma events here.

Awesome. The green one is similar to my friend Shawn's bike "the bomb" -- http://40thaveinstitute.org/bomb.htm

I'll be curious to see which one wins.
