My wife and I went to the Rosé Wine experience at the World of Wine in Vila Nova de Gaia, and lo and behold, there in the lobby is a full-size wooden Harley.

The wine was pretty good, too!

Perhaps out of view, but I do not see a sign that says 'do not touch' or 'do not sit on.'

Did you sit on? Please tell me you sat on.

There was no sign.

Still, I did not sit.

Sorry. I just could not believe that we would be allowed to sit on it, sign or not.

Don't forget to mention the front tyre is mounted the wrong way around.
Maybe on your way out the door.

I believe those were the feet and legs to a playing card style joker / jester.

It was not the rider of the mosaic motorcycle.

Well, I guess it could have been.
