Presenting The New Authentic Ragged Bicycle Hobo Strippy Quilt (Throw Size) Bags and covers are not the only thing I do for my bike or myself. Here is a quick look at my new Ragged Bicycle Hobo Strippy Quilt I completed on my new toy-appearance Hello Kitty Sewing Machine just last night. It took much detective work to locate the right fabric with bicycles on it-even though the bikes used on that fabric were a bit on the juvenile side for my taste. And on top of this, it had to be pure cotton flannel in order to be authentic that a real hobo-like Hobo Mike himself-would have used during the Great Depression Of The 1930s. (Although to be really authentic, it would have used whatever was at hand-an old blanket, worn out quilt, or even newspaper stuffed hidden in-between as the old hobo used to tell me). Plus using the rather soft color range palette popular during that time. When it was actually being sewed, I just had to remember to sew a bit more slowly through the denser seams.
A New Way To Bag Your Bike Your Way
And Something For The Home, too!
Here is my
newer updated version of the old Geocities Website reborn into a Web
2.0 format. Don't worry, portions of the older Website has been
kept mostly intact below and in the following pages. You
will find a more interactive, streamlined, and easier to locate and access the most
important information on all bikes, not just folding or fold up ones, to be found
anywhere. Enjoy!
The Road Best Taken How To Use This Website
A quick overview is in order. At the left of your screen is the Site Map offered on all pages here. It is organized by pages listed underneath the major topics. This linkable map can take you anyplace located on this Website instantly just by clicking on it. It is updated just as instantly when I add a new page or topic. My Complete Table Of Contents pages are organized similarly as the major all-encompassing one is listed at the menu on your left. The other Specific Topic Table Of Contents pages are similarly organized but are for and under one specific major topic only . Each page has links to the Complete Table Of Contents & usually it's own Specific Topic Table Of Contents are located at the bottom. The Complete & Specific Topic Table Of Contents are not as instantaneous in becoming updated as my Site Map. I have to do this by hand when I have the time. Therefore, it could lagged a bit. But it is more in depth in it’s descriptions of the subject matter. The topics are as varied as to keep interest going and encourage you to come back and visit from time to time. And many topics that are here now were not even dreamt of when I created this Website series back in 2006!
Web 2.0.still photos (my own) & now videos (from other credited sources) will still be needed to add visual interest and fine detail to this updated & new Website version of the World Of Folding Bicycles series. That is another reason why I have 2 separate sites (and now even more ones have been added to this Website series). They are both interrelated to and complement each other in obvious and hidden ways.. Yet each one stands on it's own as a educational tutorial means of experiencing the best of these bikes have to offer. My primary basic all around goal here is to make sure people buy the best bike for them at the budget they deemed proper. I really hate to see people go away unhappy due to simply becoming lost in the lopsided system of corporate America-or the global one for that matter. And being turned off from folding bikes, even non folding ones, forever.

A Final Reminder.....
Many people in North America and other non-cycling countries about the high cost of a new bicycle. To put into a more accurate perspective: The average cost of a new bicycle in The Netherlands is 579 Euros or $761.45 in US Dollars From:
