bicycle fever.
have y’all noticed the bicycle fever taking place these days? everywhere i look, there’s some really sweet new bike designs popping up! not to mention the always fabulous 2009 tour de france is on! it’s a pretty great thing – good for the environment, and good for our fitness and health. I fixed up an old, vintage motobecane bicycle and i just love it. i even added cherries to my basket (my friends and i like to call it ‘pimping your ride’). amsterdam is a wonderful example of a city that gets around by bike and i was lucky enough to spend 48 hours there a few years back. even on cobbled stone roads, mums ride around with groceries in their baskets, and one or two children in tow. I was so impressed! here’s a glimpse of some shots i took there, and some great new bikes i’ve been seeing around the web, including mrs. french’s lovely bicycle round-up here on sfgirlbybay. happy cycling!

Bespoken For.
That wonderful Mrs. French has gotten me all bicycle crazy, and now Jessica Hall Burns of Minneapolis-based design group Red Black Brown goes and taunts me with some more bike-love. It’s a poster commission she did for Handsome Cycles (whose bikes I also think you would love, very cycle chic). It’s a two-color limited edition screen print Jessica printed featuring the Twin Cities’ skyline, dotted with flower-like gears. It’s sort of an homage to the cities where we live and ride with a vintage modern feel. You can find this poster, and this other one I really love (below) also from Bill Burns of Red Black Brown, available at Handsome Cycles. Be warned, you make come away with a really cool bicycle, too!
