Moving the Busycle

June 6, 2009

This was fun.  One day Matthew Mazzotta asked me to help move the Busycle from an ancient warehouse in the Navy Yards to Cave Dave’s workshop/home in South Boston.

What is the Busycle?  You’ll just have to see:

That thing is *so* not even hardly street legal.  So we were concerned about police as well as high-speed mechanical mayhem.  But the St. Patrick’s Day Parade had just happened in South Boston that day,  which apparently changed the rules.  The police seemed to think we were just some part of the celebration on our way home.  So we somehow got a pass as long as they thought we were all drunk revelers rather than sober engineers and artists.
