When I first saw this monstrosity for sale on Craigslist, I was ready to get all snarky on it and talk about what a horrible creation it was, what was this guy thinking, who would ever buy it, blah-de-blah-blah… But then I followed the link in the ad to an interview with the builder and began thinking differently about it. Here was a guy with a painful back injury who came up with a very original, endearingly bizarre way to get back on two wheels (albeit two wheels that are far enough away from each other to routinely occupy different zip codes). Suddenly, I’m not so willing to snark on the guy. Despite the outlandish wheelbase and shadetree-spec construction, his utilization of a big rig’s air-ride seat was genuinely inspired and successfully put him back in the saddle (figuratively speaking). This sort of creativity and determination to get back on two wheels deserves a respectful tip of the ol’ hoon-hat as far as I’m concerned. For the two-grand asking price, it might even be a fun ride for a non-injured person…someplace where navigating tight corners is not required, such as out on the playa at Burning Man (it’s mutated enough to get in, no?), or I-80 across Nebraska. …Or it would be the perfect Bonneville pit bike, don’t ‘cha think?
