Awesome Bike Sculpture

Thanks to Todd Marlow, the RAGBRAI EPIC bike sculpture at Sam Wise Park in Altoona is finished! A group collected bikes from all-around, added a little Marlow love, some zip ties, paint, and a really good welder (Eric from T&A welding)! Awesome job, Todd & Eric! This is truly an EPIC piece! IT’S GAME ON IN ALTOONA THIS WEDNESDAY JULY 27th!
