refurb the un-furbable

This is a trial and error for a piece that I have in mind. 

I see so many abandoned bikes around london some have parts missing
 and some just have flat tyres. Each one has a story, each one was once new
each one had a purpose other than street decoration.

  1. hi stranger where you been?
    Good to see the bike works. Were you aware of Simon Starling's bike works?

    and Elizabeth Wright

    there is plenty of room for more bike works though
    see bike references in Flann O'Brien's 'Third Policeman'

    I have a bit of history, myself, in this area!
