I do not know much of anything about this piece of art, but I like to call him the "Hell Rider". It appears it was made in 2007. It is in front of a cycle detailng place here in Lewisville on 3040 west of I35E.

Enjoy, I do every time I drive by it.

Hey John, I'm a little late with this, but here's a "bike" of mine that one of my students made for me a couple of years ago. She also made a number of other very creative metal art pieces, some of which are displayed in our shop at the school. Best regards, Allan

Gonna have to do some editing to get it down to size first, Sorry.     This was cut out of 3/8" M.S. plate and then painted.

Allan,
  That is one sharp piece of work there!! I bet it holds a special place.

Carl,
  Those are pretty neat. The rooster reminds me of the line in Young Guns when they are high off of peyote.."DID YOU SEE THE SIZE OF THAT CHICKEN????" LOL

Where abouts were these?

these were on state route 706 going toward MT Rainier national park, WA
My Wife wasn't as fond as I was of them, So I could only snap a few pictures in a hurry the whole time she was complaining about getting the car back on the road so we could stop for a cold one somewhere.(It was a hot day!) :)

Added one of the scenery we were enjoying too!!!

"My Wife wasn't as fond as I was of them"

I can relate to this. Mine does not understand it either. :-)

Back in the early Ninties I did some of these as a form of therapy

Hope you like them. ;)

Respectfully,
Henry

Thanks Henry, I have seen them on another of your posts, they're just as impressive now as they were then. Best regards and be well/get well, whichever applies. Best regards, Allan

Cool stuff there Henry. I can sure see how doing this sort of thing could be very therapeutic.

Take care,
