Google Leads, You Pedal




How rad is this... Google has a new bike software that helps you find the most convenient way to bike from point A to B in over 200 cities worldwide. It is still in beta-testing mode, but very cool and worth checking out.

Fashionably late..






Welcome to the Spring 2011 menswear collection from Moncler Gamme Bleu, shown in Milan.
What do you think? I think its super fly.



IF Mode folding bike features special handle to lug like a suitcase



Winner of the “iF Gold Award,” the “IF Mode” by Mark Sanders is a folding bicycle that removes all the clutter of traditional bikes, such as greasy chains and complex tubes with hidden dirt traps, to attract the next gen toward the traditional yet sustainable mode of commutation.

I've seen a few different models of fold-able bicycles, and this one seems to top them all. As it should with a price tag of € 1,750.00. It is limited production after all.

Pretty nifty, eh?

Check this link for more details.

VERMONT BOUND


So on this gorgeous weekend, myself and a my dear friend Marc are going on an adventure.

Vermont is only apx a 2h drive from downtown Montreal, and has so many amazing trails and camp sites to enjoy. Not only is it a more unconventional weekend getaway, but its a vacay on a budget - which works well since I'm saving up for my sweet new ride from ABC Cycle.

If your interested, I'll keep you posted on the experiences and recommendations of where to camp, where to rent cycles, and where to ride.

A few great sites to start y'all off:

RECOMMENDATIONS



Dude,
I went to ABC Cycle & Sport on Parc today and the following happened:
A) they fixed my bike in 10 minutes (if not less)
B) Suggested the most amazing (and cheap) upgrade options
C) Were SUPER friendly, helpful, speedy, efficient, and KNOWLEDGEABLE.. and best of all CUTE!! (even if the gentleman at the door was only a meagre age of 16)

I have been to numerous bike shops around the city and have had many a bad experience, so you can assume my suprise when I found ABC Cycle to encompass everything I needed in a bike shop. Also, I have quickly realized that if you live in Montreal, ABC Cycle is seriously the ONLY place to go. Whatever the need be.
Cant say enough good things about this place.

Not to mention, there's nothing better then the a shop that smells like brand new bikes and cycle equipment.

I have officially found my accessible dream bike: 859$ - which is the cheaper of the choices, among many.
Heavens got a seat for me.



Enjoy the ride.
