Cycling Sisters

Downright entertaining links:

Hokey Spokes:

Okay, I have these. I admit it. They are completely dorky, and COMPLETELY awesome. Kids go nuts over these, but quite frankly so do adults. They make you more visible, but better yet, they spread smiles like candy.

Build Your Own Bike Bucket:

If you commute at all, you can recognize the utility and value of this set-up. Better yet, it's made of recycled materials and allows you to ditch your car. What is not to love about this?

Bottle Opener for your frame:

I used to have a link for a homemade version of this, but the link is broken. This came up on a google search. I love the idea of this... who wouldn't like a nice cold one while out on a breezy summer ride? Pedros tools makes a nice "tool" version of this.
Here's a link for a photo of a modified dropout bottle opener (no one would even recognize it!) http://www.shitshifter.com/pictures/view.jsp?id=804

How to do a Track Stand:

I need to get my neighbor involved in this. You should see her on her bike (I'll post a couple of shots of her going past our house). There is a completely awesome You-Tube video of a woman in Germany doing this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ISJjxsh7mZ8

Yes, really. A dalmation in Japan riding a two-wheeler.

This young woman *so* gets it. An inspiring letter to Joe CarDriver.
