You’re going to miss me

Lulu and the Lampshades. I love everything about this video – it’s simple and beautiful. And seriously makes me wish I had more rhythm.

This Friday is the launch of Bike Week here in Halifax. Paul and Peter will be hosting Superfly your bike! at Bike Again at the Bloomfield Centre from 2-5pm on Friday. They’ve been busy picking up supplies and sewing together flags, which we’ll be screenprinting today at Inkstorm. There are a pile of events lined up for the following week, including a big Open Street Party around the Commons on Sunday, May 31st.

In Vancouver, Bike to Work week wrapped up May 11-17th, organized by the Vancouver Area Cycling Coalition. Watch this video of their Share the Road Challenge to see how 7 out of 9 times, cyclists beat car drivers on their commute to work.

For posterity, here’s the beautiful event poster for this year’s challenge.
