One Day in Doha

Everyday I saw this bike parked in front of a shop in Najma. I was told that this is a way of preventing the bike from being stolen...i.e. by taking off the saddle. And what can I say about that custom-made horn..... priceless!

The Doctor

Check out a custom-made Kuota bike by a fan to honor Valentino Rossi aka 'The Doctor' the 7-times MotoGP champions. MotoGP fan might recognize the #46 on the head tube.

Actually, I accidently found this photo on the net while googling for VR. In fact, the colour scheme made the bike looking not bad at all. Well, Im not sure whether he rides bicycle (he do play football!) but after all he is an Italian...no?

American Chopper

Check out this beauty built by Orange County Choppers (OCC) for Lance Armstrong and his Lance Armstrong Foundation (LAF).

The process of building the bike was shown on the Discovery Channel's American Chopper show last year or maybe in 2005 (i don't really remember when) and the bike was presented to Lance on the Tonight Show with Jay Leno who has his own theme bike by OCC as well. I think, the bike was sponsored by Nike to honor Lance 5 times Tour de France victory which was carved on a cover plate but later on was altered after he won his 6th. The Yellow & Black paint symbolizes the Livestrong Foundation color theme.
