Some prefer two wheels to four

Another particpant at the first annual KJM Car Show rode his entry instead of driving it.


This 1971 John Deere bicycle was owned by none only than the DJ who kept our guests at the show showered with good music: Dave Larkum. Dave loves banging through the three-speed transmission when he stomps his foot toward the floor, then the other foot, then back to the first, and so on.



I knew of John Deere bikes, but I can't say I ever remember actually seeing one. This may inspire a new trophy category for the next show: 'eco' or 'leg-powered.'



If you need any auto work of the cooling or exhaust variety, please look up Dave at his shop in Buffalo, MN. His new location is a block west of Arby's on highway 12.
