Tron Bike Reaches a Photon Emission Milestone

This is my Bicycle. I love my Bicycle. It's a Nishiki Rally lit to the extreme.
Here I am riding it for the first time after a heap of new lights have been added.

Too big to fit! (My first HD YouTube video)


Simon Clay and I created a pretty awesome switch box for most of the components. It currently controls:
1 Rear Red LED ring
1 Blue Silicon LED ring (around the crank)
2 Sequence LED strips on the fenders
1 Blue LED ring under lighting the switch box
I have dubbed the box "The Simonizer"
It works with any light components wired up with headphone jacks. I've got about 3 extra slots to use, and if I need more, I can simply use a splicer.

Not controlled by the Simonizer, but also on the bike:
2 8ft Blue EL wire kits line the wheels
1 15ft Green EL wire kit on the frame
2 Monkeylectric kits on the spokes
Regular white LED headlamp, and a red rear light.




So check out the fun times that were had photographing it in my flickr set here.

Edit:
Forgot to add some footage I took with my digital camera. There's a few closeups to show off the different parts.

Summer is arriving. Bike fix time.

New bike parts being attached! Stay tuned.








Just a sample of what the bike used to look like.

Mega Ton Update

All hail lord Intertron, bringer of new web services!
While you quiver in fear from him, I must pay tribute and update my websites, do my taxes, kick a puppy, and run through my quasi annual technology catch up.

So while you were reading that paragraph, I updated my:

Stat Page

And I did some catching up:

Rosenpig on Facebook

Still on my to do list:

My Bicycle

I proclaim my Bicycle to be ridable art! Behold my latest creation:





It has taken about a month of waiting for various parts to arrive in the mail and far too many customs charges. It's still a work in progress. The next thing to do is install my clear blue pedals and get some LEDs to light them up. I've still got some red wire which I might put on the back of a jacket or line my helmet or some goggles with, if I can keep it safe.

Let's get it all out. The nerd; out with it.

Here it comes... some super nerdy filth I'm scraping off my hard drive just to keep it occupied. I've got to get back to the serious brooding work of an introverted artist, so this is all an attempt to get the nerd out of my system.

Loose quick sketches, all.
