Those Wolfies Vintage Cruisers


This 1960's Huffy Roadside Cruiser has my name all over it.  I've never been a huge fan of cruisers but boy this collection of classic bikes from Wolfies Cycles is just gorgeous.

Each bike has been beautifully restored by owner Mark Austin and the whole collection will be on display (and for sale) for a few weeks only at Blank Space Gallery in Surry Hills.

They knock socks off the recent plethora of modern beach cruisers - no substitute for originality in my humble opinion so go, look, buy, it's very rare to see so many beautiful vintage bikes in one space.  Felix (age 4) thinks they look like brilliant shiny rockets and he's right.

And hands off the Huffy!
