painting I did of Keino

keino painting, originally uploaded by Richard Grabbe.

My black bike

I built this from butted and straight gauge tubing. It's gonna be my going to the local dive bars and keeping it DUI free machine. It's getting an Alfine 8 speed internal hub and has internal routing for all the cables. It's not super light but it should last a while. Its about 5 pounds the way it sits.

This is a guy I know who's getting the wwf world champion belt tattooed in it's entirety around his stomach. He got in contact with the guy who designed it to get the line art. It's truly phenomenal.
