Paul Freedman aka “Fossil Fool” of Rock the Bike added some clever outriggers to El Arbol, his tallbike mobile audio system.

Paul was recently ticketed for violating California’s tallbike law, which prohibits bicycles “of a size that prevents the operator from safely stopping the bicycle, supporting it in an upright position with at least one foot on the ground, and restarting it in a safe manner.” Although he violates the letter of the law, he hopes the judge can see that he is indeed able to support the bike in an upright position.
