Bicycle Club Celebration

As you can tell, I haven't used fondant in a while. I had this great idea for a group of women cyclists who were celebrating a long ride they completed (hilly and through a forest). I had never made a topsy turvy but I'm sure you couldn't tell that either. The directions for the cake made a huge cake - it was supposed to have a 3rd tier but I gave that up.The fondant was Satin Ice but I can't blame them- it was operator error. Had a really hard time getting the fondant smooth - it cracked and tore. I had buttercream underneath and it looked like a lumpy mess. I just covered up as much as I could with fondant decorations, then put some stickers on the board. I was supposed to make different bike's but at that point realized my skill level was waaaaay below this cake. At least it tasted good - it was a black magic cake with oreo cookie and cream filling. It was a free cake as I was practicing. Guess I need a lot more practice.
