Riding High
Bozeman, Montana
2024
In the funky Bohemian northeast section of Bozeman, there used to be a house with several old bicycles perched up on the peak of the roof. They were there for at least a good thirty years I think. A few years ago that house succumbed to the creeping gentrification that has infected the area and the bikes are no longer there. Sometime later this tricycle appeared on the roof of a shed in a nearby alley. I don’t know for sure why it’s there but I’ve always taken it to be a nod to those bicycle landmarks from Bozeman’s “good ole days.”
