  • what’s wrong with those boys ?

    I know; most young boys want to act tough, they like to have the looks of the Ramones, or James Dean. But it seems like the boys on this photo don’t realize that the girl is bare naked !   In fact, they use her as if she is a bicycle rack !!!!  And their faces…

  • I’m an old man now ….

    My daughter had her birthday. She’s 23 years young now. Still a long life to live ………. Many problems to solve…… A lot of adventures to survive….. Makes me feel I’m an old man now. It was 30 years ago that I hummed Neil Young’s “Old Man” day after day. Now it’s her time to…

  • A ride through the country

    A rare moment ………… because we seldom ride together !  When we are both on our recumbents, I am always miles ahead. But last weekend we found out that when I’m on the Bullitt and Marjan on het Challenge Focus, we keep together all the way 😉 I used the “trimtool” and found another speedy…

  • very small dick

    I was cycling in my Quest in the neighbourhood of Arnemuiden on a cycling path next of the main road, when I saw a large 4WD-car in the rear view mirror slowing down. When he was driving next to me, he steered his right wheels through a muddy pool between the main road and the…

  • bullitt billboard

    I bought some yellow letters today to print on the Bullitt-billboard. Conversions has some nice stuff in their shop. Because I am not sponsored by any company, I printed my nickname on the billboard. I took my dog to the beach, to let him out. Because it was the third time, he knew what I…

  • Bullitt

    A slideshow I made while the Bullitt is still new and clean in it’s original state ; And Henry asked for a 360 degrees video ;

  • Red Bullitt

  • Theories of Bicycle Pornography

    1980s b/w interview with Dr Paul Berry. Celebrate the beauty and sexuality of bicycles. Bicycles are objects of human desire. Objectification of bicycles. Humans make bikes; human make babies too. Bicycles are brought into life as adults. Don’t use the term ‘riding’ or ‘rider’. ‘Ride or ‘riding’ is a dominant relationship term. Use ‘cyclist’ instead.…

  • cv 2010

    Hello good readers who just keep on reading this blog; I went to Sloten, near Amsterdam. Cycle Vision was organised at the Velodrome in Sloten. It was an excellent day to stay at the beach, not for racing in a velodrome. Because there were no races in the open air after noon, I decided to…

  • Cycle Vision

    Hello good readers who read this blog, I’ll visit Cycle Vision tomorrow. It’s all happening in Sloten, near Amsterdam. A sneak preview ; A couple of years ago (2007) I myself made a video during Cycle Vision. It’s had more than 50.000 viewers !

  • clearing our shed

    Linseed oil is the best for preserving old wooden toolboxes, and the smell reminds me of the times I was a little boy and saw my father doing the same 😉

  • Cycling Jerseys

    I think it’s a fine initiative of this guy ( Phil Gaimon ), making statements with use of cycling jerseys. ” The goal of the jerseys is just to get the message out there. We’re treated unfairly, like second class citizens, but how can you be informative or send a message at all when someone…
