Lock up a bike in NYC. Take a photo a day. Watch it disappear.

Coalition Jersey Sale!

Our friends at Voler Team Apparel are having a sale on our jerseys! A significant portion of your purchase goes towards the Coalition so we can continue to provide our communities with the advocacy, programs and encouragement they need to choose bicycles for transportation and recreation.

 

There are women’s jerseys available as well, get ’em while the sale continues!

Bike Hanger

Check out this awesome concept project from Manifesto Architecture, based in New York. It’s a vertical bicycle parking system, intended to be used in spaces where space above the sidewalk is under-utilized.

The users pedal the bicycle on the bottom to rotate the hanger until their bicycle is ‘delivered’ to them on the ground level. Genius! We’d love to see one of these in action… maybe one day.

Happy Friday!
