I am taking a breather from school for a few days and doing some much needed housework and catching up on on Nashville Scene reading. In one of the issues, they answered a question I had had for some time. Who are the guys riding the interesting, wierd bikes around town? I would usually see guys riding these bkes in Hillsboro Village, and would always do a doubletake. The bikes are tall, and unusual. Engineer types, I thought.
Well, maybe they are engineering types, but they are members of The Rat Patrol, and they make freak bikes. Apparently there are similar groups of people all over the country. In the article, they mentioned that Nashville is not a good city for bikeriding. Too many hills and too few bike lanes, and hard to get bike parts. One of their main tenets: to remain essentially disorganized.
