Of all publications, the Wall Street Journal posted this great video on bike commuting:

Watch it here

Our friends over at Transportation Alternatives did a nice job talking about how bike infrastructure leads to increased ridership. Nice work guys, that’s what it will take.

Have you heard of the Flobots? They’re a Denver band and they have a new single out called “Handlebars.” The song isn’t exactly all about bicycling, but it’s worth the watch!

Once again, thanks to Fritz for the alert.

Have a look at this PSA from Hungary. Use earphones if you’re at work! Pretty racy.

But of course we’re not surprised! What a beautiful, amazing sight. Estimates are 75,000 attendees and 8,000 bikes. And, yes, the sun does shine in Portland!

This is bike porn, but not in a good way. From Sweden: A 40-year old man from Ostersund, has been convicted of sexual molestation having got rather too ‘up close and personal’ with the saddles of local women’s bicycles, the Östersunds-Posten newspaper reports.

Here at BikeDenver, we try to keep you apprised of the latest in bicycle oddities.

Again, thanks to Fritz for scouring the newswires to bring us the latest.
