Video: Reggae Riders

NewsVideo

If you have four minutes and fifteen seconds to fill (waiting for your microwaveable lunch to go ping perhaps?), you could do worse than spend it watching and listening to this.

It’s not rad, it’s not gnar, it’s just a simple little tune set to a video of people riding bikes – lots of different sorts of them. You’d have to be a cold customer not to feel a little glow watching the smiling children ride round the parks of Edinburgh and Glasgow, or waving from a cargo bike. Also in the video is the rather excellent Bike Station – Hannah has fond memories of descending into the Edinburgh shop under Waverley Station and entering a hidden world of bike bits.

Ping!

Your dinner is served.

I came to Singletrack having decided there must be more to life than meetings. I like all bikes, but especially unusual ones. More than bikes, I like what bikes do. I think that they link people and places; that cycling creates a connection between us and our environment; bikes create communities; deliver freedom; bring joy; and improve fitness. They're environmentally friendly and create friendly environments. I try to write about all these things in the hope that others might discover the joy of bikes too.
