I've seen a bicycle in Nairobi made from bits of car a colander and a leather belt;

"Riding to work on my bike, I look into a forest beside the road and see a riot of depth,

It is also hard enough to accommodate bike, skating, other vehicle traffic and durable to withstand harsh weather.

which transfers the string s vibration to its own sound cell. 3d nylon printed bicycle designed by Andy Hawkins

this bike is constructed from a manufacturing process known as additive layer manufacturing (ALM), which is used also in the manufacturing of satellites.

The Capital Crescent Trail, a hard-surface trail from Georgetown to Bethesda, MD, developed on an abandoned rail bed, is a great bike trip that is off the beaten track.

Jogging and bike paths wind around 13 miles of shoreline earning Minneapolis the designation of being a Bike Friendly City from the League of American Bicyclists.

Also a cultural hot spot, Minneapolis is home to the Hennepin Theatre stages, which hosts Kids Nights performances (The Lion king debuted here before heading to Broadway).

The bearing system that allows the bike to turn can be locked so that a thief can t steer his stolen bike.

The lock is internal, meaning that he d have to destroy the bike to ride it away. 8. No more Greasy Chains An updated shaft drive

Nothing actually works.##Finally, a year into the project, a Russian engineer named Alex Krasnov cracked the code.

When the bike tipped to one side, Krasnov had it steer ever so slightly in the same direction.

This created centrifugal acceleration that pulled the bike upright again. By doing this over and over, tracing tiny S-curves as it went,

the bike wobbles a little at first, like a baby giraffe finding its legs, then suddenly,

and race are variations on the familiar bicycle. Most are recumbent with riders sitting down in a more aerodynamic position than they would on standard bicycles.

Most also have aerodynamic fairings to increase speed. Some have three or even four wheels.

Â In developed countries those types of vehicles along with more conventional bicycles can be used to relieve traffic congestion improve public health reduce airâ pollutionâ and significantly lower transportation costs.

They are faster and more comfortable than standard bicycles and many offer protection from foul weather.

Â Studies have shown that people who commute by bicycle live longer and have improved cardiovascular health compared to automobile commuters.

Inside the discs a fan of digestive tubes delivers nutrients radiating outward like bicycle tire spokes.

To capture the images the teams strapped a camera onto a bicycle and pedaled it down dirt paths through the forests

and more portable than the camera used on the bike. This will enable us to run Street view to farther places and show more about our largest natural asset:

Just like the flickering light on a bicycle powered by a dynamo the Earth's currents are a little erratic

Three Projects That Reimagine Conventional Calculatingartist and cycling enthusiast Gregory de Gouveia based in Chico California has built bike sculptures before.

De Gouveia decided to build an unofficial clock for the bike event. He called on nearby cycling communities to donate used bikes

and once enough junkers rolled into his shop he held a disassembly party to remove their gears frames chains and other components.

The eight models (they found that eight is the minimum number to get fish to school in a lab setting) were suspended from the bike wheel with wire.

Tour said industrial carbon fibers--a source of steel-like strength in ultralight materials ranging from baseball bats to bicycles to bombers--haven't improved much in decades

There's only so much research you can do speed at the of a bicycle. Oceanographers have made up some of the observational deficit by contracting with shipping lines to gather data along commercial routes.

Ride a bike, take public transportation, or walk. The more you can get along without oil and natural gas, the better.

Style meets function in Mick Peel's bespoke bike saddlesflat streets, good biking infrastructure and temperate weather make Melbourne, Australia, a hot spot for cycling.

a fashion designer that has worked up a large following for his bespoke bike saddles and bar tape.

Adventure Journal featured Peel, who works under the moniker Busyman Bicycles, in a Q&a this week.

Why would one need advanced degrees to make bike saddles you might ask? One doesn't, obviously.

Busyman Bicycles came into being some time in 2008 and also has become very much what my Phd is based on.

Peel says interest in custom bike saddles, bar tape and toe straps, like the type he makes,

such as their bikes, and to move away from mass-produced commodities. For some of his clients, fabric selection has become an issue.

Consider the sales of new cars and trucks versus sales of new bicycles with 20 or larger wheels:

US Bureau of Transportation Statistics and the National Bicycle Dealers Association Both fell sharply in the economic crash of 2008,

but bicycle sales held up considerably better, and actually exceeded vehicle sales in 2009. What the data still can't tell us are traveled the miles by bicycle or on foot,

and how much of that traffic constitutes an enduring shift away from fuel-burning transportation. Anecdotally, I have seen many more people in my own social circles biking more and driving less,

we should see bicycle sales hold firm around 11 million per year, if not rise above vehicle sales again as we move into the era of net oil supply decline circa 2014.

I recently went car-lite and outfitted my bicycle with a rear rack and paneers (bags that clip onto the bike s rear rack) and now use my bike almost exclusively for local errands within a 5-mile radius. Terrapass says a flight emitting approximately 6,

is comprised of off-the-shelf roadway sensors linked to software that tracks the speed and volume of vehicles oe either cars or bikes oe moving over the sensors.

But with Ullrich's iteration, a local cycling organization could track existing throughways for bike traffic,

as a means of designing user-friendly bike lanes and better understanding vehicular traffic flow. A bike-sharing company might use it,

too, offered Ullrich, to figure out where to site their bike racks based on existing bike traffic patterns.

Their bike network is unparalleled in the country. It s an amazing infrastructure. You can see their commitment to getting people to where they need to go without the automobile.

Do you have a bike share program, or bike lanes? We ve been expanding our network with bike lanes.

We have a new trail that was a rail line. Portland Trails was one of the lead groups.

We haven t really gotten all that much into bike share. We have some private companies that rent out bicycles.

We have a car share program through U Car Share. Do people bike year-round in the snow?

I haul everything around in a trailer behind my bike. What are your personal green goals?
