Open Bicycle

The distinguished framebuilder Mike Flanigan dropped by last night with some nice ANT (Alternative Needs Transportation) goods for me and a few ideas up his sleeve… hopefully we’ll be seeing some OPEN x A.N.T. collaborative efforts very soon.

Mike has been diligently building his distinctive but utilitarian bikes since 2003 after leaving IF (he was one of the original founders) and is now out in Holliston, MA.  If you haven’t seen his rideable works of art, be certain to check out his current models.

PS:  Note the Weekly Dig placard in the background of the photo- we’ve been shortlisted for the “DigThis 2009″ awards for Best Bike Shop!  Pop over to the survey page to vote! (For us, if you feel so inclined…)
