It’s again that time of the year when I’m fed up with the Berlin winter and want to ride my bicycle again. And seeing this beautiful Bruno Mini Velo 20″ Road bike doesn’t make it any better. Apparently Bruno is a Swiss brand which is quite popular in Japan, especially their mini bikes.

I don’t know anything about motorcycles except that this 1963 BMW R60/2 looks bad-ass. It was customized by Blitz Motorcycles, they left the fenders away, mounted on some offroad tires and gave it an all black look. Killer.

I wouldn’t mind having a geometric bike, this one was made by bigger than giants.

Fall II by Bas Jan Ader, Amsterdam 1970

This probably the oldest footage of bike tricks. Thomas Edison filmed “Bicycle trick riding, no. 2” in 1899!
