Speaking of Bikes...

Okay there will not be another bike post after this but I couldn't help it. Kickstand Coffee made its debut in Brooklyn this past weekend with great success. Why is this worth blogging about? Well, this coffee is transported and powered completely by bicycles. The bicyclists/Kickstand Crew/baristas travel wherever they please throughout the city while providing environmentally friendly transported coffee. 

Traveling isn't easy, but the Kickstand crew manages to transport 160 pounds each on a cart. And the good news is the coffee is great too! Next time your in New York try to locate the mobile Kickstand Coffee.

In this bike friendly city, 33% of all trips are made by bicycle. Watch this video in awe and think...

World Cup Interpreted Through Art With the World Cup just around the corner, you'll find that I'll be posting more content about my favorite sporting event. While reading through Fast Company, I found this beautiful slideshow from 14 artists that have created their own interpretation of the World Cup through art. I'll keep this post simple and sweet but look for the beauty of some of the simplicity, complexity, colors and design of these beautiful pieces of work. Also, let these beautiful pieces of art get you get excited for a gathering of culture, people, talent, music and love for the game of soccer!
