Midtown NYC is reportedly full of these strip-cycles as a promotion for some stripper TV show. Didn't know stripper TV shows even needed stunt promotions like this but OK!
Sports Buzz Because mountain biking isn't hardcore enough, a father/son duo picked-up Municycling; unicycling with an “M” for mountain. They just conquered the 14,433-foot Mount Elbert, the highest peak in Colorado, while not wearing clown suits, for unknown reasons. Just sayin' it would've made the feat much harder to top.
Artist Kevin Cyr fashioned a “camper bike” — or a fully functioning RV perched on the back of a bicycle. Family vacation roadtrip (for one!)
I just had to take the time this morning to say how great it is to live in a city where the police love bike lanes as much as bikers do. They even use them on the job, just to show solidarity with commuters! It's like a mini-parade, and every day is Bicycle Safety Day.
“This is one of those things that clicks immediately: A bike made of springy, light, sustainable, and abundant bamboo.” Only costs $2695. Next step affordability.
A helpful chart for the angry motorists of the greater New York area. There's more where this came from.
Thomas Edison filmed some early trick bike pioneers who were into fixed gear bikes waaay before you.
Music Buzz Here is another enchanting Portland-based indie band for your consideration, with a twist: they tour on bikes! Or they used to. Now they're SXSW hotshots and about to tour with the Decemberists, so they use vans, but still: the stories from their bike tours are completely charming. There's also a documentary in the works, if you're interested, and the whole music thing too.
Someone stole Lance Armstrong's one-of-a-kind trial bike. Lance has put Twitter on the case and is offering a reward. Also, you'd presumably get to meet Lance Armstrong, which is why I'll be knocking over anyone on a black-and-yellow bike today.

Bikes are now allowed in London bus lanes, a plan which has some colorfully dressed bike enthusiasts a little concerned.
Culture Buzz The Talking Heads frontman designed 9 ridiculous looking bike racks for NYC streets. With names like “The Hipster”, “The Coffee Cup” and “Olde Times Square”, Byrne’s bike racks are meant to capture the essence of New York City neighborhoods and encourage people to ride their bikes.
Culture Buzz White bicycles — known as Ghosts Bikes — are installed to memorialize cyclists killed by car accidents. The tradition began in St. Louis in 2003 and quickly caught on across the country. The tributes, often adorned with plaques explaining the details of the accident, are also an attempt to raise awareness about sharing the road.
Culture Buzz Crazy-looking bikes with colorful two-tone spinners are popular in Oakland, CA. The video is kind of old, but if you’re not in the West Coast, it’s a phenomenon you’re likely to not have heard of. Apparently, asking a girl if she wants a ride on your handlebars is the new way to cruise for chicks.
Sports Buzz As New York and other large cities prepare to construct (or at least mark off) more bike lanes, a debate is brewing about their efficacy. Lax enforcement and a slew of fatal accidents are leading many cyclists to the conclusion that bike lanes are merely a token effort on the part of urban planners and city officials.
