bike makeover

I wanted to make my vintage black bicycle more exciting.  I wanted a yellow bike, but when you're shopping for old models, you don't always have much of a choice.  So I decided to make my bike into a bumblebee.  I may add more yellow but for now I like how it looks.  I didn't want to overdo it.  I bought yellow duct tape at the hardware store and slapped it on.  I was going to paint it, but after some quick internet research, I discovered that painting bicycles is usually more trouble than it's worth.  This didn't take long at all and I think it looks awesome.
Now I should make myself a yellow bike seat cover...
