Description
You may not want to lean your bike up against a tree and forget about it for 40 or 50 years, or this might happen! This antique bike has hot only been completely encompassed by the tree, but lifted about 6 feet off the ground as the tree grew.Related content

The story goes that a solider left if chained to the tree in 1914 and never came home, his parents left if there as a memorial. I find this so completely amazing, It is FOR SURE on my bucket list, not only as a love of photography but a cyclist too.
A Gentleman wrote a book based on this its called "Red Ranger Came Calling"

I think it would take a tree mendous amount of work to restore sushi-robots.
Hmm, I can just imagine the look on someone's face if they were to find a human skull in the middle of the trunk of a felled tree.
