Item details

Mens cycling water bottle featuring the King of the Mountains jersey created from tax discs; a quirky and unique present for any cyclist..
The image is reproduced from an original collage, if you look closely you'll see one of the Tax discs is from Hockley, Nottingham.

The design is on a very a light grey back ground and is on both sides of the bottle.
The water bottle is 600ml volume, made from aluminium and being only 99g, it is very lightweight, making it perfect for both competitive and more leisurely cyclists.
It comes with 2 different caps, and is boxed, wrapped in tissue paper, and comes with a TreeHuggery sticker

I make art from found materials, and like to use materials, that due to changes in technology, are no longer in use.
When I heard that tax discs were going to stop being used, I wanted to incorporate them into my art. The reason for making them into cyclists is due to the fact that some motorists use the argument that "cyclists don't pay road tax" (which is in fact untrue) to argue that they should have priority on the road.
After carefully cutting a few tax discs to create cyclists, I realised that the red circle at the bottom of the tax disc would be perfect for creating a King of the Mountains jersey, so here he is.
I'm currently very fortunate that people know that I collect old tax discs, and every once in a while I receive an anonymous envelope, stuffed with old tax discs...its lovely to know that people are thinking of me.
