Found this amazing metal bike at Pier One today. It actually works like a real bike - the pedals move the chain which turns the back wheel!! I thought it would make a great MSD size prop, so bought one. I tried it with several of my dolls, but really liked how it worked with Maya. I rolled some newspapers and he was off to deliver them!! I think I really should go back and get a second one so two friends can go biking together.. Doll Leaves asked me if they could post some of my photos of Maya on their Facebook page, and of course I said they could, after all he was a gift from them. Later, they told me they had posted this photo of Maya on the bike, and that they almost immediately had over 100 people share the photo.

Yes, it's considered a "metal bike sculpture". I like that it actually works, stands by itself, and has that old-fashioned look.
