Possibly the Best Use of Bikes Ever



Missed these guys last Sunday when they were in town, but have been meaning to post about them anyway. What is the Pleasant Revolution? A music tour, powered entirely by bike. That means the 800-watt PA system too, by the way. From their site:
OK, OK, imagine this:
Hundreds of cyclists are gathering at your town’s biggest intersection. In the middle of the crowd are 4 bikes thumping James Brown like an armada of lowriders–but the beauty is, there are no cars. Suddenly the crowd thunders into unison motion, rolling loudly through the town, turning heads, evoking cheers and applause...

Do go and read all about it--they are down into Mexico by now, but you can still keep up with the tour, as well as previous entries on their site.
