old video

a new cycling blog …
… for keeping stuff organized. All about my cycling will be mentioned at wimharwigcycling . So if you’re only interested in cycling stuff …. change you’re settings 😉
upgrading cars …..
…. by making bicycles of them ! I think it’s the best way to practice Cradle-to-Cradle on a scrapyard. Bicycledbikes.com is trying to set up a project and do it !

A here is a follow-upContinue reading “bus-car-bicycle-velomobile”
too much blue …
… gives me a sign that I have to renew my tyres. They did 8800 kilometers. and as always I couldn’t have done it without the help from a few drops of Dreft and the approving look of my best friend, Mo.
grow bicycles …..
So you think how to control a bicycle …
… I thought I knew too. But after seeing the next video, I learned a lot more 😉 It took Jason Moore seven years to find out what techniques we’re using for a simple bike ride. Suddenly I realize why I like my three-wheeled velomobile so much 😉 Here is a video of his doctoralContinue reading “So you think how to control a bicycle …”
