We can hardly wait! Maybe by then I, the voices in my head, and the demons that keep me up at night, will have come to an agreement on which bike to build.
No matter what I build, It's gonna be awesome!

We won't get back home until May 14th. Going to Southeast Asia. Burma, Bali, Indonesia, and Malaysia. It's gonna be a hot one, but exotic.
I hope that I get decent internet access so that I can see everyone's build threads as they start.

Who knows what kind of inspiration I will get over there? Maybe I'll come back and build a Buddha Rat Rickshaw!!!!?????

Can you stop by Hot Wheels in Malaysia and get me a shirt?

Have fun!

The build ends on August 1st, doesn't it?

A work situation and a kid situation and other situations will delay me a bit, but my build will be simple so I only need a short time when I get started. Still should be easy to get done with that much time.

And I already have the chain guard decal:



So I have the base bike, two cans of yellow paint, and a decal. I'm ready..



Anyone want to trade a purple velour seat for a white and black seat?

Seriously... First the Spaceliner now the Buddha Bike ??????
I wasn't planning that for the Build Off, but I'have the PERFECT "Headbadge" that I've been wanting to use....




I think it might be Hindu not Buddhist though....

[Peatbog]

Looks like a Hindu that converted to Buddhism. She just hasn't eaten enough yet.

[yoothgeye]

You're both wrong, she's Mayan and she says y'all can't finish your bikes according to her calendar.

[Peatbog]

Crazy Mayans. I don't like her attitude. Probably cursed my yellow paint too. I might have to go red then...

I only needed 30 days to get 28th place last year. This year I will have more than twice the time, so I should be able to get around 56th place or more.

[Peatbog]

I'm screwed, man. My paint is cursed. I might not even get done now.

The power of suggestion is really bringing me down...

Pretty cool!! Believe it or not, it never crossed my mind to keep my eye out for Build Off parts while I was over there. Thanks for the inspiration.
I think you are right about it being Hindu. The countries we are visiting are Buddhist (Burma), Hindu (Bali), and Muslim (Indonesia and Malaysia).

Cue up Crosscut Saw from the Hindu Love Gods and get to Hypin'.

Oh, man, that thing there is some bad ju-ju. You'd best just sit this one out.

It does kind of remind me of the evil Tiki that Greg Brady was wearing when he wiped out on his surfboard in Hawaii.

Marsha, Jan, and Cindy had a fit!!!
