Continuing on the Phoenix theme, this Creative Commons-licensed photo by Flickr user (and all around digital maven) whiteafrican shows a classic shade-tree mechanic in Africa working on some old-style “Black Mamba” Phoenix bikes, with minimal tools.

Here is a wider view of the same scene. Classic.

Next time I’m in Africa (October, most likely), remind me to pick up one of those chainrings that says “Phoenix.”

Yes, pick up one of those. Just don’t bring any more weird masks to hang on the wall. xo
Now that would be something to raffle!
