    That's how that little kid in the "Jonathan Rides to School" video (or whatever his name was - the little kid on the Strider bike?) will commute as an adult!!

    I'm too lazy for machine translation this morning, and the Dutch is way beyond me. What is that an ad for? Public transit passes?

    And this is not how I commute, either: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rVELTxKRoHA& "The Bike Song."

    But next time I'm riding, I'll probably have this song in my head...

    OMG, this video was shot around the area where I work. That bike shop is just down the road, but think it may have closed now. Transport for London is using this song to promote cycling in the city: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vvfq_maaVig

    Thanks for posting. Made me smile.

    I don't think LAB wants to promote that kind of riding!

    Oh, very cute!! I hadn't seen it first time around. No need to understand Slovenian

    I loved the footage of the guy trying to park, vs the bike . I feel just like that most of the time I'm forced to drive our car.
