Recyceling

| More
I really love to watch this show, "Weird Wheels." It's Canadian-based and only on the DiscoveryHD Channel, so I doubt anyone else has heard of it. Anyway, it shows about three "vehicles" (for lack of better word) an episode. They are all custon art creations and just fun to look at. Sometimes, they simply profile the artists. One was a man from San Fransisco who went to a salvage yard and took bikes from it and turned them into fantastic creations. I think that is a great way to recycle, don't you? Not just handing it over to a machine which will make it into some product, but taking junk *yourself* and turning it into something you or a friend could use. Hey, this is giving me ideas... I now have the sudden urge to grab a blow-torch, head down to the town dump, and make myself one beast of a bike out of all the scrap bikes i find down there. Who needs cars? Recycle bikes! Brilliant! Besides the fact that I'm 13 and lack said blowtorch... I think I'm on to something good here.
