For a long, long time I have wanted a sweet cruiser/low-rider from the 70’s. A nice Schwinn Orange Krate would be the ideal, but this hot little yellow number popped up on Craigslist and I could not resist. It is in near perfect condition, right down to the original tires, and it is already super fun to cruise around on.

I must confess Anthony Mattox and I are responsible for this monstrosity. What you are looking at is approximately 97 “Otter Pops” brand freeze pops that were emptied, in liquid form, one by one into this bucket in the freezer, only after the layer before it had frozen. What we thought would be a beautiful, rainbow tower of summer fun turned out to be a monolith of sweet disaster, lubricated in sugary sludge.

I’m calling it a success.
