All I can say about this width way designed tandem is that it solves the problem of the stoker having their nose in the backside of the leader! Would be nice to see a couple of cyclists actually riding it though.
This blog dedicated to cycles/bikes and the variety of uses they have around the world. Being a keen cyclist and having previously worked in a cycle shop it is only natural that my interest is reflected here.

A True Tour Cyclist
Perhaps this is what tour cyclists look like if they showed their true colours. Tongue in cheek of course, (or perhaps not!) Just thought this picture was quite appropriate for for the last few decades. there should be two tour circuits one for clean cyclists and one for drugged up ones (no limits) - I know which I'd rather watch for entertainment!

The Twister Bicycle
The is call the ‘Locust’ invented by Josef Cadek. It features parts that fold neatly into a circular central frame. Ideal for travelling by trains and buses. You see it in it's half folded position. It does straighten out and fold into a circle.

Freedom Framed Bicycle in London
Designed by M and C Saatchi, this ads frequents the London area in trying to promote tfl's campaign for more cyclists in London. I recognised the backdrop as Parliament Hill Fields where I spend much of my youth. This aside the cycle concept is quite clever, but then the most influential genre in this world are the media and advertising industry.

TFL Olympic Poster
The 2012 Olympics are in full swing in London now and seemingly tfl (Transport for London) have dished out some good advice for getting around during the games, namely riding a cycle. I like the way they use humour to get the message across. It does however have the desired effect of getting the message across.

Barclay's Cycle Hire in London
Great idea in London however the bikes are tanks to ride, many riders do not have any road sense, but the positives outweigh the negatives big time. Pity it has to be sponsored by a rouge bank who have no real interest in a more environmental friendly world!

A Tower of Four Bicycles in One
Vertigo is the last this you need riding a tower of four bikes. Ride 'em cowboy comes to mind looking at the rider and the pose. Better look out for low bridges ahead one thinks!

The Red Devil in Winter
Those of you who follow the Tour de France will know this character. It is of course the Red Devil who follows the tour each Summer and never fails to capture the media with his antics and cycling orientated contraptions. This is clearly not the Tour de France with snow about, but he is still up to his eccentric tricks even in winter.

Tricycle? No Bicycle!
At first sight this has all the makings of a tricycle, but on closer inspection it is a bicycle. A slight model on the old penny farthing I might add. All fun in the cycling world.

Not For Road Use
Well it goes, but doesn't look comfortable or practical. Also, trying to get a replacement tyre would be near on impossible! By the way, where's your helmet love!?

A Mountain Biker With A Death Wish
This may be a snapshot of this action, but to me I just want to know if he survived! Living on the edge seems to be many mountain bikers ambition, this is no exception.
