I'd have to say that the brand of paint that they chose for the Big Dipper really didn't stand the test of time. I mean it's all covered in mildew, runny and chipping off.

The first drop comes very close to the tunnel...when riding remember to definitely keep your hands and arms in the car or you may end up loosing them.
