Butterfly bike for Lance

Damien Hirst has customised a ‘finish line’ bike design for Lance Armstrong using real butterflies.

I’m not sure how I feel about that, but it sure is pretty.

I wanted to use real butterflies and not just pictures of butterflies, because I wanted it to shimmer when the light catches it like only real butterflies do, and we were trying not to add any extra weight to the bike.
