Saturday, January 7, 2023 -- Manhattan Beach Pier

Saw this wooden box on the back of a bike.
Interesting construction.
Thin plywood panels that slip together.
Looks like the pieces are either laser or waterjet cut.


Washed the bike yesterday.
Still kinda clean but had to ride through some more sand today...

This 850 couple drove in and went across the field...

One of the most protruding bumpers, when the bumper laws came in during the mid 70s...

Ferrari/Dino 308 GT (Bertone design)

Great dash/interior design...

Interesting color.  At least it's not red or yellow...
