So this nice young lady offered to add a few degrees of coolness to the bike...

I ran the rear brake cable along the middle frame tube so it wouldn't interfere with any of the design.

The stripes are tricky to photograph. The frame is shiny metal covered in a sanded and buffed glossy clearcoat. The design is bright limeygreen/chartreuse and orange. Most of my pictures were just a big glare. Still have to experiment with lighting to get some better shots...

I did have some fun with the free effects tools that Photobucket offers... :)

I haven't had a lot of time to work on this bike lately. I did manage to sneak in a few test rides including one last night at dusk to my favorite photo "backdrop".

This bike may be too hard to shoot with this color in the background but I wanted to see how it would look...

I dunno... I still like this blue that I used for RRBO8... :)
