Trek fx 7.2 by the Cedar River. Hard to see but there were 19 ducks in a row swimming by. Low water levels so the water is kinda scummy in this inlet.

I wanted the black version of that Natas deck so bad when I was a kid. Would you believe that there was outrage back then because of what his name was, spelt backwards?

Bronze statue is called Skipper. A boy skipping rocks on the water. My first Schwinn was a Skipper.
The river boat is the Celebration Belle.

I so need one of these!

 

[SwissGuy]

I so need one of these!

The bike is obviously a custom version from the owner/founder of the company varibike in Ulm, Germany (the town I used to live until about 6 years ago)
Here's a video from 2017 showing the "variboat" in action at the "Nabada" (local dialect for bating down the river), the yearly water parade on the Danube (you might spot me in the crowd watching from the riverbanks somewhere).
(You might want to lower the volume before clicking the video, as the choice of music is let's say special...)

And another one from 2014:

and 2018:

He's clearly working on it and improving it every year...

A sick rider also. My first real board was the Vision gonzo. Are you still searching for Animal Chin?

1959 Schwinn. Corvette frame. Kendrick Lake.

Are you still searching for Animal Chin?

That one changed my life. It wasn't about competing, it was a search for higher levels
