Creepy Ghost Rider Hitches a Lift on Eric Tryon's Bike

— March 22, 2010 — Art & Design
Eric Tryon's bike is a little creepy. The artist apparently decided he needed a bit of company on his boring and lonely rides, so he hooked up with this demon skeleton.

The bony companion is permanently affixed to the basic bike structure and provides a bit of eerie fright for curious onlookers.

Don't let the functional bit of Eric Tryon's bike fool you--Tryon is a serious artist. See some of his work in the gallery, including a self-portrait.
