Here is What Others Are Saying about the Banana Bike Brigade....
"From the whimsical to the serene, the ridiculous to the sublime, the Banana Bike Brigade has kinetic creativity that defines comparison. They are a unique group of St. Louis artists dedicated to the art of the parade and the nurturing of the creative child in everyone."
~ KMOX Parade-A-Palooza
"From St. Louis, these special art-bikes are always a treat! See everything from the "Water Breathing Dragon" to the "Pinky Flamingo" to the rock-n-roll "Elvish" bikes!"
~ Collinsville Catsup Bottle Summerfest
