Artist Stephen Fairfield plays with the whimsical in his steel sculpture, Batty Biker. Located along the Loop bicycle trail, Fairfield's work sits at the site where folks notoriously gather to watch bats mingle during dawn and dusk. Fairfield worked with welded steel pipe, rod, and perforated metal to construct the expressionistic recumbent bike and bat due!
