Gravity Bikes are go!
Stumbled on to a site about the ‘G-bike’ BMX scene on friday—bikes with no pedals, 20" wheels and aerodynamic fairings. You jump on at the top of a hill and coast down trying to brake the least to get the fastest time. No propulsion other than Newton’s law. Apparently on the right road they can reach speeds of up to 70mph. How cool is that?

Welcome to my blog; you can probably already see that it contains the occasional Podcast, bits and bobs about music, Macs, design, bicycles and whatever else I’m finding interesting at the time of posting.
Feel free to have a mooch about, sift the archives, and maybe — if you feel driven enough — post a comment if you enjoyed, can elaborate, or think differently about any of the subjects I’m banging on about...

Oh God. And I thought pushbikes was a SAFE hobby! They look expensive - which is good - because you're not getting one - I don't care if they DO have 20 inch wheels!
