These are the only ones I have pictures of.  The other one that I really like is already hanging in an irish bar in the area.  It has three leaf clovers in the wheels and is painted green.  I got rid of it and the pictures I had were not very good.

This one is called "Outstanding Ordinary", because I am trying to get it in a juried art show, and the "art" has to have a name and the wife came up with it.

Very cool! 

As I'm an avid wine drinker, I'm partial to that one.

Thanks Monica.   That seems to be a common theme.  People like the wine/beer bike a lot.

Oooh inspiration for birthday, wedding and Christmas presents.

I have to say that you are amazingly talented and have a wonderful quirky sense of humour  My favourites are the penny farthings (yes I love wine and beer too!), the peacock wine bottle light, and the 5 o'clock clock!

Thank you for the compliment on one of my hobbies that my wife says I have way too many of.

A bicycle wedding theme for my daughter's wedding is what started all of this.  Then people see one thing and ask for other things, like the country-ish themed things I made a few weeks ago like the cowboy boots and hats and the long horn bull.

I have more requests for the 5 o'clock somewhere clock, just have been working too many hours at the full time job to get them made.  I am guessing you have been to my FB page if you have seen all of the other things you listed in your post.

All your art delights me, but particularly these bike-themed varieties! I kinda feel like the exploding suns of the wheels in Outstanding Ordinary mimic the outrageous joy of flying downhill on a bike ...

The first name of the bike was Starburst Standard or Sunburst Standard, so you got the same vibe, that I was going for when I scratched this on a napkin a few months ago.
