Fabulous job. Well done from Australia. I love 'themed' bikes. Yours is so much fun. "why not?" is a perfectly legitimate answer to most building approaches and you have proved that you can have something that's a little different and well executed; not quirky and ugly, but individual and well proportioned. You have set the bar high. I'm going to have to 'Theme' mine now, yours is too good :).
