Designers with a deathwish are pushing the boundaries of bicycle design far beyond the realm of practicality into preposterous new worlds. The following 10 bikes are some of the most outrageous concepts to spring forth from this movement, and should only be operated in a controlled environment by stuntmen and circus folk.

Tompkins Square Practice from hfwido on Vimeo. It's Fall in NYC and the days are getting shorter and colder. Thompkins Square has this huge blacktop where local kids skate and this woman on a unicycle practices her moves. I usually head out there on my lunch break when it's nice out and mess around for a bit. Years ago you couldn't walk through this park, now it's pretty gentrified with a dog park and all. ...

When I saw San Marco's booth at Interbike, I was stoked beyond anything else. It seems that they are reissuing the Concor. My two favorite saddles of all time are the Selle Italia Turbo and the San Marco Concor. Both saddles fit my big, yet tender rear just right and I have put several through hell. Because of Kyle's post on Tracko today, I meandered over to the San Marco site to find that you ...

Davenport Road, early 2008. Note the "bicycle lane" and "snow route" sign, which warns citizens that cars need to be moved to keep the road clear. Note also that the bike lane is completely buried. To any Dane or Swede, that headline would be completely silly; it is expected that such an important part of the transportation infrastructure would be maintained year round. But in Toronto, cyclists are second or third class citizens when it ...

Image from garryknight It's amazing what an Olympic victory can do for a country's cycling fervor. Yes, as noted by The Times' transport correspondent, Ben Webster, the British are in the midst of a cycling revival of sorts -- fueled as much by the recent hikes in energy prices as by their team's epic haul at the Beijing Olympics. The squad, which boasted two Olympic track cycling champions and a BMX wor...

App Store fornisce le applicazioni ufficiali per iPhone dividendole tra quelle a pagamento e quelle gratuite: l’acquisto di una App a pagamento permette naturalmente all’acquirente, qualora la avesse scaricata, di scaricarla nuovamente. Ovviamente senza pagare. Stessa cosa per gli aggiornamenti: finora non sono noti casi documentati di aggiornamenti a pagamento. Qualora l’applicazione fosse stata acquistata gratuitamente e poi la stessa fosse divenuta a pagamento, l’aggiornamento è sempre gratuito. A questo proposito, l’immagine di apertura del ...

The still un-named Toronto cyclist who lost his leg last weekend when squeezed between the rear end of a taxi and a signpost (see Taxi Driver Severs Cyclists' Leg in Violent Hit-and-Run) finally was coherent enough to give his statement to the police. The result: Sultan Ahmed, 38, of Maple, Ontario has been charged with: 1) Criminal negligence causing bodily harm, 2) Dangerous operation causing bodily harm, 3) Fail to stop at scene of accident ...

Sure, the Holy Grail to most is a golden goblet from which Christ drank from at the Last Supper. Indiana Jones taught us that the grail was in fact, made from wood, since Christ was a carpenter. Well, this my friends is not about a goblet, this is about the Holy Grail for Eddy Merckx fans. Karl, who I recently bought a jersey from on eBay, got ahold of this 7-Eleven team Merckx. This isn't ...

Near the beginning of this you’re like “Eh. It’s a kid on a bike.” Then, when you think of the planning that went into this carnival of lights, sound, and blue streamers you kind of realize that maybe the human race isn’t doomed after all if kids like these will be calling the shots in thirty years. Thanks, John
