Car End Game | Cycling Politics | Bicycle Theft |
|
As a rather interesting 2008 in both political and economically terms draws to an end, we enter 2009 with trepidation. If anything, 2008 will be marked as the official beginning of the demise of the motor industry in its present form. Gas Guzzlers are no longer profitable to manufacture but difficult to sell and expensive to own. Ironically, it’s in the home town of mass car production that we see its spectacular decline. It was started in Detroit, US by Henry Ford and it's here where end game has begun; car giants General Motors and Chrysler the first to flounder. |

Backpacks for Folding Bikes |
|
Recently, I have being investigating an effective way of carrying a folding bike. I was looking for a back pack solution to carry the folded bike which I can also easy take with me when riding the bike. I found that the market does not provide many practical solutions with the best options being in the concept or early design stage and not available commercially.
Firstly, as most folding bikes are cumbersome and heavy, it is imperative that the back pack separates the bike from your back. The last thing you need is a metal part jutting into your lower back or a dirty oily bike rubbing off your clothes. Secondly, the pack when not in use must be light, foldable and attachable giving you no nonsense when cycling the bike. |
