Purple Bike Man

Went on an equipment shopping trip to York today. Bumped into an old friend of my brother's. He's a mime, who's act constists of him painting himself Purple, dressing in a suit that is painted Purple and posing on a bike that is painted Purple, with a dog in the basket that is painted Purple. And his entire outfit is designed to look like it is being blown by a gale force wind. We chatted for a little while, and then we had this photo taken.

First Post, an Introduction

This blog will be home to all the photographs of my orange bike, William Of, with all the orange things he and and i encounter as we cycle our slow way part way around the world.
This little project sort of serves as a continuation, or rather a reincarnation, of a project i began with one of my other bikes:



I may also use this blog to recount a few of the more colourful adventures we get up to (but a more in depth, journal like account of the trip can be found at www.orangebikeride.wordpress.com).

There may be reference to other people working with orange, or even comments on the nature of other colours, and anything else i think worthy of note.
