At about the 50 second mark of this video, you witness a car plowing thru a pack of bikers. Not dudes on motorcycles, but a gang of fun loving bicyclists who are part of a global group called 'Critical Mass.' From what I understand, Critical Mass is a 'protest group' that hates cars and modern society, so they ride around town in a huge pack to make every1's life more miserable while they are stuck in traffic behind bikers. It is supposed to send a message abt how 'bikes are taking back the city, [...]

I guess for alts who can't afford cars and don't live in suburbia and ur parents don't drop u off at work at Best Buy 4 days a week. I guess maybe it is true... alt is going mainstream... Our music... Our fashion... Our methos of transportation... Sorta wonder if Zefron should dump tween Mexi slutwave Vanessa Hudgens and maybe just become an indie alt [...]

Link: http://www.nytimes.com/2010/09 /30/fashion/30BICYCLE.html They say that riding a bike is one of the easiest things 2 do in the world since u learn how to do it when ur young, then u sorta never forget it, like when a lil babie spider learns how to spin a web from its mother. However, I just read a 'hip, kewl' New York Times trend piece that really tried to hype this concept of the modern, metropolitan woman starting to ride bikes to make themselves seem more independent / like [...]

In our modern society, bikes represent 'going green' by choosing not to drive cars that indirectly melt our ice caps. Many environmental experts say that it is important for humans to stop driving fossil fuel mobiles so that we don't kill our Earth. Most American cities are built to accommodate cars, not bicycles , leading to tons of non-helmet biker bro deaths every year. [...]

Link: http://www.walmart.com/catalog /product.do?product_id=1339814 2#ProductDetail Fixed gear bikes are often associated with hipster / alt subculture. I think this is because they are mildly unfunctional or maybe even hyperfunctional or something. Apparently Wal Mart is now selling fixed gear bikes. Wal Mart is known as the master of moving low cost goods at low prices, so it makes sense that they would opt to carry a single gear bike instead of a multi-gear off roading bike. Poor people and minorities simply don't have the budget or the rugged [...]

As yall know, I am a huge fan of the alternative alcoholic beverage Pabst Blue Ribbon, and instead of owning a car, I own a 'fixie' a.k.a. fixed gear bike . I need more brand+product MASHUPS 2 take my personal brand 2 the next level. Think this might be another 'marketing ploy' by the PBR 'unintentional' marketing team [via brands that are adopted for no good reason by privileged 'subcultures']. Not sure if it would be possible to create a more authentic vehicle. Possibly a Sparks Prius, or something like that. Or maybe a [...]

Photo via HiStyley Yall. I saw this bike, and wondered if it was a fixed gear, or 'just a cruiser.' Have yall heard of fixed-gear bikes? Does n e1 know how they work, and why people buy them? Feel kinda like it might be more advantageous to have a bike with multiple gears, but I think sometimes 'subcultures' can develop out of people 'being unreasonable.' I think with only 1 gear, u have to do more work in order to ride ur bike fast. [...]
