Quite the bike sort of an upside down recliner. Very showing but you have to wonder about comfort and handling for sure. Maybe the circus was in town.

Re: PESO - Form over Function
Earphones? I don't think they're good idea on a bike. Helmet? I think it should be a personal decision but personally I choose to wear one. Bike lanes? I have mixed feelings about them. If I'm the only bike around, they're great. When they're crowded with bikes they can be quite dangerous. Overall I support them, I support making more of them but I'll often avoid them during rush hour. I'd prefer dealing with cars than slow bikes... Thanks for the comment. And thanks to everyone else who commented. Btw, I got it wrong in the initial post. I meant to refer to Louis H. Sullivan, the modernist architect, father of the modern skyscraper who famously said, "Form ever follows function." I think I mixed his middle initial with John L. Sullivan the last bareknuckle boxing champ.

Re: PESO - Form over Function
Interesting, Derby. One of the cities or counties here in Washington rescinded it's helmet law for bicyclists last week as being unenforcible. Why? There is not enough money in the treasury to even begin to patrol/ticket/prosecute any offenders. Admitting that the law is merely a money pit? Going back to the days when helmets were not even available to protect us as we vaulted our fat tired Sears machines over makeshift ramps in the middle of the street. One of my good buddies in the 50's while trying to best me for distance and height found himself a few feet above the street at full speed holding nothing but his handle bars as he watched the bike fall out from under his arse. Memorable road rash, but he healed and was better for it. Safety checked his bike before a ride ever since. :-) On May 29, 2012, at 02:43 , Derby Chang wrote: > Nice. > > Is it a good idea for him to be ipodded, no helmet and on a non-bike lane? > Sorry, I've been doing risk analysis all day. > > D > > > > On 29/05/2012 8:41 AM, frank theriault wrote: >> Louis L.
