Boo! Halloween is right around the corner. Your local stores have been showcasing pumpkins and candy for a month now, which means it’s time to start thinking about your costume. If you’re like us, you won’t want your bike to miss out on the spooky festivities. Thankfully, we came up with a list of costumes ideas that not only incorporate your bike but also are fairly easy to put together. Follow our looks exactly or mix them with items you already own to better match your style – and your bike! Let us know in the comments below how you rocked it – or share it with us on Instagram by tagging @PUBLICBikes.
