Austin Bike Zoo Bicycle butterflies

Born as a collective collaboration of imagination between bike builders, puppet makers and performers in the creative and supportive environment of Austin, Texas, the Austin Bike Zoo brings joy, wonder and everlasting memories to the public through bicycle butterflies that glow in neon. Ringleader, cofounder and mechanical engineer Jeremy Rosen and his company create enormous bicycle butterflies—the smallest of which are 10 feet tall and the largest 18 feet tall—that accurately portray species like the famous Monarch, Tiger Swallowtail, Common Blue, Albino Monarch, Buckeye Moth, Luna Moth and more. Traveling to various cities, like Houston, the Austin Bike Zoo lets people fulfill fantasies of flight by riding a 15-foot butterfly.
