Tour De Fat Rat

[aka_locojoe]

Hoping we get to go to the Tour De Fat in Ft Collins this weekend. I thought I'd put together a new/different bike to take if we do get the time off to go.
Wheels and seat are off of this bike viewtopic.php?f=16&t=30471

Thank you. My goal was to put something simple/ratty together that I wouldn't worry about it traveling in the back of truck for a few days. I also wanted it to stand out some which I think the orange accomplishes.
Yes the headlight is functional or will be once I replace the dead batteries

Do you have a costume for the parade?

No I don't. Haven't worn one yet. Would like to but I'm lucky just to get my act together enough to get there. So much going on here this time of year. Also trying to get things ready for our upcoming Midwest Bicycle Fest.

Be a pirate. Easiest costume to do. Old white shirt cut up, old pants cut short and a couple of props found at most dollar stores. Bike chain grease to make it look authentic.
