Some of you may have seen these pictures before but I think it's still amazing.

That top one almost looks photoshopped to me?
Couldn't resist...
Any normal Schwinn would have been swallowed up by this Giant Redwood but not this stretch Dyno.

First pic- It might not be Photoshop, but I don't think that it "grew" like that. My guess it the frame got cut in half and then the halves were fastened to the tree somehow. After a few years, the tree would heal, and any non-bike person would pass it and be AMAZED!!! (I also think a tree growing around a frame would tweak it pretty good)

I'm almost tempted to plant a tree and strap a bike to it, to see what we have in 20 years or so. Wonder if Walmart still has some of those black friday stingrays?

Now that would be cool to gouge open the tree to see fresh paint...hah
:lol:

wonder if sensor has any pics of the tree bike at the shop. thats right we have a bike on display that a tree grew around then it was cut down and we were offered the part with the bike in it.
