... is a Bird on a Bike! :lol: Trust me, the bird is real and alive! And it matches the Yuba Mundo! Seen in Bloomington, IN, Little 500 weekend, 2016.

Well done! 8)

Watching with interest! :)

Looks like you have a solid plan, well thought out and researched, with proven components to meet your well-defined goals. The bike should turn out very well. I'll be watching. :)
