Pizzaween Two!!

Pizzaween this year had a realitively good turn out, especially when it came to the freakbikes. For the first time in a long time the majority of the bikes on the ride were freaks. I didn't take too many good pictures, especially of the fun stuff because I was busy doing it. We played a few games of hard-contact freakbike footdown which many wheels. Later we played throw the wheel, drink the booze, and tallbike jousting. Whoever took the pictures of the joust couldn't be bothered to stand up, and it was dark so none of them came out. Oh well. Full album here.

Wingnut Bikes

Just a quick shot of the bike rack over at Wingnut in RVA.  I got to ride the tandem all the way across town from Food Not Bombs.

I fixed it, right?

A good while ago, when we slept on my friend Krista's roof during Slaughterama, we appearently left a couple tiny wheels under the stairs since a few bikes obviously broke.  When we came back for Best Friends Day and partied on the same roof we realized the wheels were still there as well as a bike that once had a front wheel and no longer did.  Thinking quick (and inebriatedly) I threw the tiny wheel into the fork.  Perfect right?

Bike Move '09

Back in '09 I moved from one of house to another. My parents came down to help me move the bicycle collection that took my entire back yard. With a trailer and a truck bed we ended taking two loaded-down trips to get it all...

Bandaged Bike Ride (Tuscaloosa, AL)

A ride to raise awareness of cyclists injured or killed by motorists. It ended at the courthouse with some circular rambling by some of those city officials that love us so much.

Fixie-styled Cargo Bike?

 

It's hard to believe but it's true.  Somebody has build a crazy cargo bike with fixie styling.  The front is so hip looking with it's matching tire and bartape, but the back is just a mountain bike with a shopping cart.

Strange Bicycles

Nothing too cool, honestly.  I think I've posted all of these before, and I think using "bicycle" by Queen has to be the most cliche thing you can do in a bike video.  Stop it, ya'll.  I'm mostly just posting to do it.  I haven't been as posty as I had intended to be.

Zero Bike

I've seen alot of pictures of hubless/spokeless bike, but this one actually exists.  It uses magets so the wheel don't even touch the frame!!!  The propulsion is magnetic, too, which means those buttons are the brakes.  Woah!

Two more really cool pictures of other hubless wheels on the link.

Wierdest Aero Bike Evar

Daaaaamn.  What the fuck.  This is a crazy bike!

Trek 370 on CL Birmingham

I usually don't post nice roadbikes, but this one is a 1980, so I feel that it deserves some credit.

IKEA Bike?

Not really, but pretty much.  It isn't actually in production, but if it was it would ship in a flat carboard box adn is a similar concept to IKEA furniture.

Stylish Vintage Plastic Bike

There are a surprising amount of plastic bikes for something you never hear about.  I think this is the only one I've seen with multiple speeds.

Recyclable Plastic Bike

Let's just say it's plastic bike day.

The big deal with this one is that it is recyclable.  I think it would be cooler if it was recycled, but whatever.  Also, why do bikes need to be recyclable?  I mean, it's fine, but you shouldn't just throw that shit away, anyway.

Vintage Plastic Bike

Why didn't this catch on?

The link isn't much help.

Veer Trailer

I'd really like to see this.  No clue when it's coming out.
