Pimping my Bike

April 30th, 2008 · 3 Comments

Since Tammy got a new bike and she’s talking about pimping it with all sorts of cool things, I’ve felt the urge to get some new toys of my own. I’m thinking of getting a cool metallic red helmet (BMX style since a typical bike helmet would look ridiculous on my cruiser), a lock (for obvious reasons) and maybe a bell or horn. What else do you think I need? I want to keep the bad boy attitude of the cruiser so I’m avoiding adding a basket or rack.

Anyone know where I can get flame stickers to put on the helmet? Maybe Toyjoy?

    Uh….. how about a nice stiff King of Diamonds playing card clothes pinned to the frame and sticking into the wheel spokes. Makes a great clack clack clack clack clack….. sound.

    Well that’s what all the neat kids did back in the 50’s. Also, don’t forget the spiffy multi-colored plastic streamers flapping in the wind from the ends of the handle bars.

    You’ll be the coolest kid on the block.
