Tennis Ball in Frame

[Beachside]

I grew up in Northern Virginia and my summers were spent at a local tennis/pool club. All the kids had tennis balls wedged into their cantilever bike frames. Was this a local fenom, or?

Don't think I've seen that done before.

Kids have been sticking tennis balls in their spokes around here but none of them carry a racket ... usually on a bike like this

and they are usually wearing these too

 

[Hogaboom]

yep... we kept them in or spokes on a 20

Makes me wanna build a canti frame, just to rock a tennis ball.

When pepsi started using plastic bottles we would stick them between the bars so we didnt have to carry them.

That gives me an idea... Maybe I'll put that Valvoline oil promotional volleyball to some use. Deflate it, put it in there, then inflate around the frame. :idea: Would work for a basketball too. :idea:
