Speaking of bikes.
I did forget to mention this bike I received. It was in about twenty pieces that required careful cutting out with an x-acto blade and then even more careful gluing. But now it’s together and I’m using it to guide my real bike search. Or not. But I am enjoying it on my desk.
If you need to get an idea of the size and scale of this thing, I photographed it with the super handy monster robot next to it.

So you DID get a bike for Mothers day!
