 Every now and then I head out on a biathlon - you know, like the Olympic sport.... only instead of cross country skiing, I ride a bike, and instead of a rifle, I shoot a Canon (or a Lumix, depending). So Sunday I set out on a biathlon to Venice and Santa Monica with a couple of friends, telling them to keep an eye out for things retro and things red. The woman whose bike is supporting the flying car noticed this in Venice, and I asked her to park her bike, conveniently red, against the wall. She decided since the car had no wheels, her bike could support it for the photo.

Biathlons are a blast. If interested, the other pictures from that outing are here:

One of my favs of the challenge. Hopefully it won't get dinged for using original artwork.
