I'm considering boxing up my pixie bike (see: children's bike made adult ridable) and hauling it down, since I wasn't planning on checking a bag anyways, and it would be a fun/entertaining way of getting around the Fest. My question is how hilly is Gainesville, and how close is everything? Pedaling on those tiny pedals can be a strain up/down hills and for long distances over a couple of miles...

For the record, this is my bike. The Inanity Manatee!

everything is preeeetty close, and i don't remember ANY hills. at all.

bring that shit son, there are like maybe 2 hills in the whole city (town) and you won't really need to hit either one. we got like 1 street. it's flat. bunch of traffic lights. places to eat. houses. that's it. besides the one venue on UF everything is a stone's throw away (well maybe if you had a stone throwing cannon).

wow that's an awesome bike, i'd never heard of a a pixie bike.

everything is close. you'll be good.

That bike is AWESOME! Be warned, if I see you I'll want to take it for a spin.

You'll probably be on zero hills while in Gville. And the venues are fairly close, minus campus.

Only thing you should know it that Gville is strict on having lights on your bike after dark AND if it is left unlocked it WILL BE STOLEN.

Hmmm...Need to perform a bike light switch tomorrow, got it. And I've got a D-Lock, ssss'all good.

And anyone who wants to take her (it?) for a test drive is more than welcome.

My goal is to have it covered in stickers by the end of Fest. The white is just...too...white.

I'm sure you can get a National Underground sticker for her!

That's one then!

one other caveat about lights:

take em with you when you lock that shit up. tards around here like to steal lights off bikes. especially at common grounds. gg.

Word, mine have been stolen too. I always forget to take them off.

also on the lights the cops will bust you if you don't have them, well it depends how bored they are but it happens

It's the Fest, they'll be too busy with breaking and enterings, noise disturbances, and urinating in publix, to worry about bike lights.

I haven't had lights in about 8 months and always ride by cops on the street at 2 AM on the way home. They are too busy for sure.

Honestly officer, it's good for the produce!

So how covered is it?
