I am fucking in love with this idea from Regan Appleton. The Royal College of Art student has created this amazing 'loving and lasting solution for your mechanical bereavement'. Such a simple idea, but beautifully executed and and instantly desired by myself!
You can either get your own ride commemorated or purchase one of the stock bikes which include the classic Chopper, Drop, Pursuit, Cruiser and more. You can then select the mount style and color and write a fitting epitaph to remember your ride. Then you're free to hang up your bars wherever you desire, over your fireplace no doubt, and just you try and resist the urge to commemorate more of your old rides (if you're still lucky enough to have them).
Prices start from £100 + postage
