smart girls cycle chic!

How about a story of how a bicycle provided secondary education for a generation of village girls in India?



Check out the clip from the film With My Own Two Wheels about how the bicycle once again changed people's lives for the better.

Vogue Around The Globe - bursting into chic, part 1

I'm devoting the rest of the week to Vogue Around The Globe - photos that have been added to the VV Flickr Photo Pool from ciclo-fashionistas and photographers from around the planet. An increased interest in the Cycle Chic movement has ushered in so many good shots, so I want to share them all with you!

Part 1 is all about glitz and glam.

Robobike

It was Man vs. the Machine at this month's SF Bike Party. The theme drew lots of silver sparklies with Robots and Cyborgs!

It's back to the future with silver platform boots and gloves!

They're baaaaack

Los Gigantes, I mean. And along with the awesome team come the awesome FANS, who gather pre and post game to drop off their bikes at our very own Bike Valet at the ballpark, decked out in Giants regalia (yes, we are the reigning Kings of the Major Leagues).

F*ck Yeah!

Beard-o-rific.

Biking to the ballpark is the way to go. You'll even burn off the beer and hot dog you consume on the way home.

IMG_1567
We love our team! Go GIANTS!

I met Rai-Sue after the game. She spotted me because of my bike.

The valet closes 30 minutes after the game, so make sure not to linger too long.
