Bikes Can Sink!
I’ve been getting some complaints lately. It seems that I have been covering the “welding” and “bicycle” parts of this blog, but I’ve been neglecting the “Women” aspect! I seek to remedy this and have even included a bikini picture to boot! Ha!
My dear friend, Candice, has recently returned from a cruise through the Cayman Islands. She has posted up some pictures in facebook and will hopefully (hint hint!!!) be doing a writeup on her blog – Some Day, Not Today , shortly.
While scuba diving, she ran across a bicycle at the bottom of the ocean, right next to a shipwreck! Apparently the bike at the bottom of the ocean is a tradition. When dive instructors prepare to leave the island, their friends will take their bike and throw it into the sea. I honestly think that, in light of the bike being RIGHT next to a shipwreck, this is an obvious case of a boat failing to yield the right-of-way to the bicycle. I mean, come on!, bikes have a right to the sea lanes as well! Share the Ocean! 
Alternate Caption: Nothing says “off-roading” like handlebar extensions and the sea bed!

Thanks, Jimmy! I’m flattered you would want to post those. The bike was cool to see down there. I really should have gotten on it. The instructor said it’s okay to do, but I was afraid I’d be to clumsy and stir stuff up. I thought you’d like it though.

Thank you for letting me put it up. In Aqaba, we went snorkeling and found that the prince had thrown an anti-aircraft tank into the ocean for people to swim around
It was definitely something else. And I agree, you should have ridden it, hehehe, but pictures and the idea of riding it are pretty darn good as well! Thanks again!
