By now, you've seen the Bike Burritos I attach to Arielle and Tosca when I don't need a larger bag.
Now I'm going to ask a question you'd probably never ask: What might a bike look like if it were finished to match my Burritos?
Well, it's not an exact match, but you get the idea. I saw the bike parked in Tribeca, near the home of the Film Festival named for the neighborhood.
If you look closely, you realize the bike wasn't painted in that pattern:
The "finish" seems to be some kind of contact- or wall-paper wrapped around the frame tubes.
From the unwrapped parts of the bike, I guessed that it's a Peugeot P8 from around 1983. I feel confident in saying that because I assembled dozens of them while working at Highland Park Cyclery.
Now I know what one of those bikes might have looked like if the creator of the Bike Burrito and Christo had collaborated!
