Bicycle

5 was shopping again. It seems that shopping is a way of exploring the world. 5 was tempted to buy some stuff, and suddenly saw a stunt bike. Since this was a 5 L$ store, and 5 is rather fond of bicycles, this item was quickly purchased.
Where did 5 see the first bike in SL? Yes is was in the Amsterdam sim, it was chained to a fence on a bridge over a canal, yes that was good, but well, what a long long time ago!
5 has to mention the shop: 5 L$ shop it is called.

It goes with a few animations, and the wind speed is increased so your clothes are really flying backwards! Putting it on the ground is like putting clothes or hair on your land, if you have a 512 m2 lot, this bicycle is enough to fill it: 100 prims. All kinds of frame details are worked into the prims. In another store a bicycle was found that was even cheaper: 1 L$. Somewhere called The Dollar Palace
Animations included, like riding a bicycle. Bicycles are arranged with other vehicles, such as sports cars, airplanes….haha.

Then 5 decided to make a more systematic search. This always ends up in a blog!
Looking for bicycle, as expected, not too much is found. Well not much….but clearly not as abundant as clothes!
Showing a bit the limits of SL. No this is not yet the real world, where everything can be found in one city somewhere….

5 found a second bicycle, 18 prims, for as expected, 1 L$! It comes with a leg animation and a standing still pose.

This is a real bike mall…..with unicycles too!
Unicycles are 12 prims, 250 L$.
Normal bikes, 30 prims, at 600 L$.
Reclining bikes, yes, at 500 L$ at 25 prims.
Tandems, 30 prims, 750 L$.


Then the next shop is mainly a store for animations, sitting, diving, boxing, and jumping MEDHUE ANIMATIONS, displays bikes of 39 prims coming at 500 L$.
With 18 different riding animations. I suppose they really add special effect, but too expensive for me right now!

La Bicyclette, Bicycle shop and museum of Annie Londoderry
Victorian style bicycle, and other things, carefully built according to photo’s on display. The highrider is 15 prims, 175 L$
There are really neat Victorian clothes too here, but it is a terrible laggy place. But all SL is laggy at the moment....

BICYCLES...Jonx Bicycle store at Ohana, 299 L$
This is a modern but small store, very little imagination
Some race and mountain bikes (45 prims)


3D Digital Art Gallery
A place high in the sky. Racing bikes….yes, but two, for the rest art, well sort of art…..
Strange combination! Two bicycles and art…..
But the bicycle is expensive, one of 500, and one of 1500 L$, but this one apparently rezzes free racing bike's! Prims not indicated…

Ok two bikes richer, for 6 L$ in total, 5 left this search, 5 has to make a bike though, for some reasons explained later….let us go then you and I, march-ing on!
