>Two More Uses For Bikes and Trikes

>   Photos found here and here. A bike hearse and a bike bar…hmmm. Both are esoteric, I suppose. And both are as equally enviromentally friendly and just as important as the other…they both offer a service. I suppose it depends on your view as to whether they are linked to one another.

>A Short Talk with Val Kleitz

>This is a short talk with Val Kleitz, veteran cargo biker and all around bicycle advocate. The video is only a few minutes long (and probably dated by a few years) but it is truly inspiring. He talks not only about the importance of the (cargo) bike, but also specifics about his. Just another exampleContinue reading “>A Short Talk with Val Kleitz”

Carrying Tires on a Bike

Seems a little ironic, doesn’t it?…Carrying car tires on a bicycle. Just another example of Things That Can Be Carried On A Bike (and no, that is not me…I found this clip at CETMA Cargo…I do own one of their front racks). And yes, these tires could have been carried in a car trunk orContinue reading “Carrying Tires on a Bike”

NYC Longtail

A friend sent this picture to me from NYC (Thanks Suzy)…she spotted it on Fourth Street in the West Village…looks like it’s a xtracycle conversion. My hope is that longtails will become more common place…they really are the most practical way to move things in an urban environment.

>Camper Bike (trike, actually)

>Just when you thought you may have seen everything…along comes Kevin Cyr’s Camper Bike, it’s a functional piece of artwork created by the artist. I imagine it’s top speed is something like 2mph, and it’s probably not that stable…none-the-less, it’s pretty cool. Apparently he creates these pieces in order to paint them. To visit hisContinue reading “>Camper Bike (trike, actually)”
