Beloved Cow Bike

It is with great sadness that I must put my infamous Cow Bike out to pasture. I have accepted a job back in NYC and just will not have space for this lovely piece of beautiful cycling art work.

This was made by a craftsman out of Milwaukee (his phone # is inside one of the milk cans. After a three-year search I finally got her a few months ago at the Tour de Fat. She has real bullhorns as handlebars, removable old-fashioned milk cans that can hold almost anything: groceries, case of beer each, etc. She is sold, fun and just beautiful.

I have changed the seat, fixed the brakes (or Doug did) and installed an automobile equivalent aooga horn. I am moving in a month but would like to sell this ASAP.

A month may not be enough time to match this one-of-a-kind item with the right one-of-a-kind buyer. Best of luck in the new position.
