Those put those bikes with 36" wheels to shame with the ads that they can go over anything.

Didi is the devil that cheers and chases the riders at the tour. He was at the Giro this year too. He designs and build weird bikes like that one. He just built a 40 foot long guitar bicycle that he rides dressed like Elvis.

It's a fixie. Fixies don't need no steenkin brakes. (Just ask in the Fixed/Singlespeed Forum.)

However, I think that's my new Windows wallpaper....

I was thinking he had the devil costume with the guitar bike, too.

Elvis would be equally cool on this one. Two Elvi, even better.

With wheels that size, you just run the dang cars over.

That is Didi Senff in the Devils costume.
