For 2 years now, I've envisioned riding around the city on Easter in a bunny suit. I think it would be a blast, and equally entertaining for unsuspecting passer-bys. So I'm posting this to the ethers to see if any fellow riders would like to play...and fish for ideas to make such a newsworthy event something of value. Bunnies on Bikes.  |

I think it would be hilarious! My only consern would be where to get the suit or how much it would be.

I was dressed up like Biker Santa a couple of years ago when I was in Galveston. The kids had a blast seeing Santa with leather on riding a Red/Black beauty..

I have a bunch of bunny suits, but they all have big heads that aren't particularly easy to look out of when you are walking. Would hate to have one on while riding. Timbo, have fun but do not, under any circumstances, have an accident. Imagine the news articles after that.  |

I am getting a suit that does not have a head...it is more like a hoodie. I would be afraid of wearing anything that was not open-faced. It looks like the costume I am ordering will have several options...I can loose the mits and footies if needed. yes, I'm crazy...but I think the memory will be worth it.

Hey TJ, if you're not going to join Timbo, the least you can do is teach him your patented Flying X routine!  Cracks me up just picturing it in my mind. |

Not a bunny, but I keep wanting to put on my Dark Vader mask and ride around with it on...

The flying X routine is only for speeds above 35 mph, going downhill or on cruise control, outside city limits and very little traffic. Mark do you have anything that would fit me? |

Oh, Woody...I'm gonna do this  I've shopped around and I am placing my order with these folks... Won't know whether to recommend them until the goods arrive (about $83 shipped) http://www.santasuitexpress.com/bunny-rabbit-costume.htmlAnother choice that is a little less money ($57.37) is here, but not as good of quality: http://www.costumecraze.com/ANML10.htmlGosh TJ, I never really considered how difficult it might be to find something to fit you... |

My son did this as a decal to put on his Suzuki Thumper. Not exactly the Easter bunny, but it is rabbit and bike related.  He never did actually have one made for the bike though.  Bike was designed in honor of his grand father, my father. Vet WWII, Korea, Vietnam. Path Finder, Green Beret. Father.  |

But we're doing a lot of Easter celebrations today, so you could make your run and find an Easter Egg hunt with no problem. Need some addresses? |
