According to my watch, there's plenty of time left in this build.

With the popularity of beer pong, you really need Solo cup and ping pong ball dispensers on your bike.

That would be a cool accessory. The ball dispenser could mount in the seat post hole. :mrgreen:

LOL!!!!! :lol: :lol:
Of course, I meant it could be put there when the bike was parked and you played beer pong on the seat board. :oops:

This has been a fun bike build. I don't mind having the bike that people laugh at each time I add something else. :wink:


I'm not laughing, I think it's all great, hard for me to qualify, especially since I don't really drink alcohol, but I don't think a beer themed bike can ever be over the top, but if someone did a cola theme bike I think it could go to far, but everything you add to this one just makes me smile.



+1 Keep on going!

This bike illustrates one eternal principle of art; there is a point where enough is enough, but if you keep on going, too much is even better.

I never seem to be able to get past that point (my designs tend to be pretty spare), and I salute you for having the cojones to do so.

I'm tempted to start commenting on the nature of self-satire etc. (having had a few beers myself), but in the end, it's just a bicycle, and it's GREAT! Ahem.

Re: BEER RUN - RRB Brewery Build Off 6 Pack Complete

Postby kingfish254 on Mon Jul 25, 2011 10:58 pm

I didn't work on the bike at all tonight, but I finished up the Rat Rod Bikes Build Off Commemorative Six Pack Sampler yesterday.
This was a fun prop to make. Cheers!

“Of all my favorite things to do,
The utmost is to have a brew.
My love grows for my foamy friend,
With each thirst-quenching elbow bend.
Beer’s so frothy, smooth and cold–
It’s paradise–pure liquid gold.
Yes, beer means many things to me…
That’s all for now, I gotta pee!”

Here are photos.

Re: BEER RUN - RRB Brewery Build Off 6 Pack Complete

Postby kingfish254 on Tue Jul 26, 2011 1:33 pm

The time demons are creeping in and I keep thinking of major changes.
Maybe the fat 20" wheels again with apes?
Maybe changing the forks from the springer to the dual tube forks from the Elvis cruiser?
Maybe making a sissy bar type backreast out of another skateboard? (in front of the beer rack of course. I already have it in my mind a way to make it removable with a mortise and tenon type puzzle joint).

I just don't think I have time, but who knows what I will do after I have a few.

Hey, there is a new slogan for this build, "Who knows what I will do after I have a few".

I't kinda goes along with the two words you hear right before a redneck goes to the hospital.

"WATCH THIS"
