Default two pictures of bikes

i had to start a thread to show these bikes because i couldn't put them in the gallery the first picture is of the first one made it doesn't look so good because it's the first one i tried to carve i started to burn it but i said no it's the first and i will keep it to show how much the next one is going to be much better i do have the 2nd one in the gallery it's the one that has a single seat and 5 spoked wheels the next picture is of the 3 rd one of the trike that has a kick tail seat the seat and back is diamond pleated made like a chariot type back i thought that it would look good it looks OK the l 50 tires with 3 spinners makes it look right racey
let me know what u think i couldn't get them in the gallery because it said jed trans wouldn't run but i can put them in a tread who knows why thet i can put them in here and not in the gallery

Those are great! I'm glad you decided to keep the first one. You carved these from a single block of wood without gluing? That's fantastic.
