First I scanned the area for a body Most likely stolen and abandoned

That bike looks to be having a nice nap in the flowers. Doesn't seem too sad.

So many questions.... the propeller is a nice touch though

looks like it was amphibious at one time...or just ready for massive stream crossings

It's obvious. The wings have fallen off

That's a bit of a bummer. Sometimes made an @rse of themselves there.

Sad that it was stolen.

^ chazpat, you may be pleased to hear that there have been a couple of recent updates to that Banksy bike story:

UPDATE 1:
Some kind soul has replaced the missing sad bike with another suitably sad bike:



UPDATE 2:
It turns out that the original bike wasn't stolen after all, it had been removed by the building's owner (with the knowledge of the local authority) for safekeeping.

More here: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-nottinghamshire-55042525

There's a small error in the BBC article: while Nottingham is the home of Raleigh bikes, and the 2nd bike is indeed a Raleigh, the original sad bike was a Coyote Arkansas.

I predict a surge of sales once the fat bikers see it.

The Snuggie Blanket (as seen on TV) for bikers!

Could that be a battery powered electric blanket?

 

[Lone Rager]

Looks like a logical extension of pogies.

Maybe it doubles as an airbag?

 

[Picard]

It can double as poop bag in the winter

It's too restrictive, and I would hate to look like a weirdo.

Not as sad as some bikes in winter. Spotted on one of my adventures
