    This is a 1 hour and 44 minutes documentary that Rob advised to have a look at. I agree, it’s worth the time, although most facts were known to me.

  • Red Bullitt

    I decided to order a Red Bullitt ! It’s a cargo bike designed by larryvsharry in Denmark. They also have a nice blog. More about the bike within a few weeks ! I can hardly wait …..

  • Body percussion

    I just liked this video ! These boys show that nothing changed over the years. We all have a feel of rhythm that is unaffected by the modern music industry.  Just “as you are”, no special shoes or anything kinky.  And it’s a kind of teamwork that can only be achieved by real friends …………
