Big Wheel Bikes

According to the Georgetown DC website in a section on murals and public art:

“Everyone seems to know the big bike on the yellow wall in Georgetown. Painted on the side of Big Wheel Bikes as you enter Cady’s Alley from 33rd St NW, the Instagram-worthy mural is a favorite among cyclists looking for a shot of their bike with a bright pop of color behind it.”

Best to view in "Original" because other versions resized by PBase are decidedly unsharp.
