Chimera

This is not something that I'll ride to work or to a road trip, but I can't deny the beauty of this beast. It was built by an artist Christos Cofitis fom Athens, Greece.
He named this bike Chimera after a mythical creature from the Greek mythology. It's a fire-breathing creature with the body of a lioness with a tail that ended in a snake's head and the head of a goat at her back.
Check out the details on the bike.
