Seems like every time I post a bicycle related post there are a few angry, f-bomb filled replies and/or rebloggs. Hate is more often an adjective used to vent these folks frustrations with the two wheeled peddler. It’s what I like to call “off road rage” and it’s a little creepy. Especially when…
This bicycle animation video is absolutely fascinating and also reminds me that I hardly spend any time creating. I thoroughly enjoy brainstorming and solving fundamental “how can we make this _________” type problems but rarely do I take the next steps. I should change that.
And this moment of self reflection is brought to you by, lazy. Stop talking and start doing you piece of crap.

Detroit Bike City (by Alex Gallegos)
A great look at the growing bike scene in the Motor City.
The following video, after the jump, offers a look into a beautiful fantasy land called Utrecht, Holland, where transit is clean, efficient, and safe. Translation: Everyone rides bikes and uses public transit.
Soon to be my new ride. I’m moving from a hybrid, which was totaled in a crash in October, to a single speed. It took me a while to actually start looking for a new bike because I was on the fence about buying a single-speed or geared bike. I chose to go with a single-speed because I only ever used two different gears on the old bike anyway. Plus, I’ve always liked the beautiful simplicity of having fewer components to deal with.
