Oct 2 2007Bike Mowers Are Awesome, Cut Grass

I don't know what rock I was living under when this trend started but bike-mower hybrids look like they're really catching on. You take a shitty ass bike, attach a shitty ass push mower instead of a front wheel, and presto, bike mower! Make it a lowrider and you're the coolest person on the block. Who needs an expensive John Deere when you can pedal around the yard on one of these? Well me for one. But that's because I have a monster f'ing yard. I'd love to be greener, but the goats don't eat as much grass as was advertised. They just stand on the damn shed all day making funny noises.
A few more after the jump, including one of me mowing the concrete.

#1 - probably because he's ripped. I bet that guy could bench me, 3 of my friends, and pick up all the ladies with his 80's rock hairdo at the same time...
