Cab Owner Paid (And Tipped) For Swapping Seats

Photo: Taken March 21st, 2010

Where: @ The Bluegrass Festival, Temecula, California

The real scoop: This pedicab owner offered Michael–Photog of the Flickr Roundtable–a ride for $1. Michael thought, "Wow that's cheap a good price. . . but I need the exercise, so no" and he declined. Then it struck him that pedaling the vehicle would make for some great exercise, so, he returned and offered the guy $1 to allow him to do the pedaling! Then topped it with another $1 as a tip!

I wondered out loud on Michael's Flickr page whether the bike has gears and he described it as like a mountain bike with a number of gears, and a stable and smooth ride.

What is this!?!

They say it's the creaky gate that lasts longest on its hinges...

(I noticed the old man's hat goes well with the bike!)

The distinctive shape of the bike! (Taken in Colorado.)

Osaka, Japan

The photos and description used in this post is from Flickr's Kaoni. Here's an excerpt from his experience in Kumatori and Osaka, Japan.

"...As I stepped outside the sun was rising, casting its golden light across the immaculately clean streets of Kumatori. I found the bike pictured above waiting for me. I gotta say, a leisurely ride through the neighborhood, which included a beautiful park, was an awesome experience.

The details, the people, the architecture, the smells and sounds, and the feel of the breeze…all of these are unique to riding through town instead of being walled off in a car or by the hull of a bullet train, and gave me a truly rewarding perspective that I’ll never forget."

Venice, Italy

Shop Sign

I love this photograph! The bike with the flowers and sign, and the surroundings. Pretty! It was taken by VintageDesignSmith on Flickr. Here's her description:

"I took the photo in Cambria, California in front of one of the many

cute little shops. I thought it was very creative of them to use the

vintage bicycle as an "Open" sign, it certainly got my attention!"

Thanks for the permission to use it!
