Gone with the Schwinn

Well, not really…it’s a Roadmaster Luxury Liner bicycle. But, I’m such a fan of that line from The Muppet Movie, that I just had to use it for today’s blog title. Heh, heh. Anyway, I’m still working on sharing more photos from our trip down the Jersey shore. So, here they are…

Poppy Rents A Bike

Biking on the Boardwalk

Today’s model is Ask Any Girl Poppy Parker. Her hair has been washed, brushed out and pulled back with hair clips found at the Dollar store. Her bike is a limited edition scale model of a Roadmaster Luxury Liner made by the Brunswick corporation in 1998 – a fun flea market find. Poppy is wearing a tank top from one of the Fashion Fever Barbie dolls, Cali Girl Barbie’s shorts, a one-of-a-kind crocheted bikini made by me and some random Barbie sneakers (Teen Skipper’s maybe?, not sure).  Her photo was taken on the boardwalk down the shore in Wildwood, New Jersey.

A Bicycle Built For Two

Have you ever ridden a bicycle built for two? I haven’t. They rent them on the boardwalk where we vacation on the Jersey shore. It’s fun to watch the people go by, working in tandem – some well and some…well, very badly. *giggle* It’s the sort of thing that seems like a good idea in theory. Usually while all the bikers are going by on the boardwalk, hubby and I are either grabbing coffee and/or breakfast or taking an early stroll down the beach. That’s enough joint effort for me. 🙂

Jack And Jenny On Their Tandem Bicycle

Today we have two models. The first is Harley Davidson Ken who I’ve renamed Jack. He’s wearing Mattel Ken’s shorts & sandals (I think from a separate carded fashion) and a beach necklace I made just for him. I couldn’t bear covering up Jack’s beautiful chest, so it remains bare. LOL, he’s too sexy for his shirt. His partner, Pop Life Barbie, doesn’t seem to mind. She’s wearing the top, shorts and shoes from High School Musical Gabriel and her own original ring and earrings. They are enjoying a tandem bicycle ride – the bike was a fifty cent flea market find (I removed the foot straps), I think it was originally included in  a My Scene set. The photo was taken in my driveway in the late afternoon, in ninety degree sunshine. Whoo-wee, it was hot out there!
