A bike built for one....FINISHED WITH PICS!

[MrFryMoto]

...so...

where's the bell?   

at her house... i might sneak over and grab it

so.. how should i present this to her?

i was thinking of riding it over to her house and acting all nonchalant about it. Then when we go to leave BAM! new bike

[ducpainter]

she hasn't seen it yet
she's out of town right now and last she heard i have a ton of stuff left to do with it so it won't be done this weekend 

on a side note... i guess this is really 99.8% done, as i still need to attach the bell (she has)

I need to shorten the time for edits...

you added the last sentence.

Put a big red bow on, and ring the bell.

I'm sure she will love it no matter how you present it, though.

Nice work Fry.   

It looks great!!!!   

[Buckethead]

I've typed out about a dozen things, all of them very witty and flattering, none of them within the rules of the DMF.

What they all boil down to is: Wow.

Well done, Mr. Fry. 

That fourth pic down is the money shot.

Also, the more of a surprise it is, the better, but only if you have a friend waiting in the wings with a camera. I like the "nonchalant" idea, but you'll have to have someone capture her reaction while you bask in glory. We all know that without pictures, you don't actually have a girlfriend.

Red is the wrong color for the bow....

make it yellow...

It's a winner.

Dang, that's a nice job there Mr.

Tell her you two will enjoy a picnic instead of the norm. Then as the garage door raises, Bam, so does her response. There it is with bell and bow ready to go. With fruits in the basket, have her break it in while you ride beside her carrying the rest of the meal.

A classic... tastefully done.

[Howie]

Fantastic job!  Definitely put some good stuff in the basket.  Maybe you could take her out to dinner and the bicycle could come out with the main course.

[TiNi]

great job fry!
that bike is the shizzle!!!

+1 on the yellow bow....
....or white 

[Popeye the Sailor]

Fantastic job!  Definitely put some good stuff in the basket.

Great idea Howie. Fry-toss a bottle of bubbly or some such in there.

[red baron]

allright allright

98% complete (shows the color the best)








99% complete




100% complete!!
(sorry for the izzy pictures - low light)

Well done.

[MrFryMoto]

good idea about the bubbly and the bow (going to have to side with DP on the yellow)

i need to run out and grab a few things - now i have a few more to grab


...might a bit though,  Concours d'Elegance is in town 

[MrFryMoto]

well, me thinks it was a success.
i rode over to her place, put the yellow bow on the seat and casually walked inside.

we talked about her trip, etc etc. then decided to go run some errands. She walked out side and first thought it was her roommate's bike - then realized that this was actually hers.

she seemed to enjoy it - i'm trying to convince her to go on here and write it in her own words but she thinks you guys won't like her.

Hey everyone! So I'm "the GF" that everyone's been referencing- Mr. Fry's woman. 

Anyway, got my beautiful gorgeous amazing bike today... and... can you tell... I LOVE IT! If I were to walk through a massive bicycle shop and could pick out any bike I wanted- this one... would seriously be it. It's utterly perfect.

So yeah- thought I'd say hi to everyone I hear so much about... and just say that Trevor got MAJOR points for the present he gave me... He's pretty much the best thing... well... ever.
