Holiday Lights On My Bike

I've always thought about doing it so this year I did. I purchased a couple of battery LED light strands and wrapped them around my frame. The battery packs are small enough that I put them in a bike bottle with some rags to dampen the jolts. I then used zip ties to anchor the strands to the bike. All this holiday cheer was accomplish for under $10 and about a half hour of work. So far I've gotten a couple of "Merry Christmas" shouts from motorist.

Makes me think of that weird tandem with all the lights that keeps popping up in Men in Black.
