One More Reason Japan Is Probably Cooler Than Here.






Seriously, this isn't a future-speculating, robot dominated, science fiction movie with Kristen Bell and Jude Law. This is a WASHINGTON POST NEWS STORY about something that exists in real time and space, right now on the other side of the planet. Meanwhile, we westerners are still locking our bikes to traffic posts and parking meters most of the times. Just another day in the relatively primitive United States of America...

***This is especially apparent after trying for an hour to get the washingtonpost.com player to actually fit into the template of this blog...Sorry! I'm officially giving up.

Well, well, well...

What do we have here?



However reminiscent of the early 90's, this interesting storage solution was spotted by me at the residential intersection of 61st and Canning in Oakland. Rather flashy bike rack for a low key neighborhood I thought at first, but on second glance, I really like it.

Nice Rack

And I'm not talking ta-ta's, silly! Bike Racks seem to sprout in new places every day around here, however slowly and long in the coming they may be about it. I noticed recently on the Philly Bike Coalition blog a permanent link with FAQs on how to get a bike rack in place for anywhere in Philadelphia. So say you're a business with a bike loving clientele and say you can't claim ample bike parking in front of said business and say you're not sure how to make it easier for people to patronize your establishment? Well, now they've told you.

Swiss Designed Bike Rack


Functional in Philadelphia


The BCGP blog is really a great resource for all sorts of things, they are always up to date with the latest bicycle related media hubbub, accident reports, local cyclist know-how and what-have-you. Just now I read a brand new post about a call for metalworkers to design a functional bike rack for the Philadelphia Center for Architecture at 12th and Arch. Strap on those thinking caps welders!
