NYC Bicycle Film Fest Opens Today 1
Not only does the Bicycle Film Fest open tonight with a Bikes Rock concert but they’ve got an exclusive blue bike saddle to boot. We’re not sure how that represents NYC, but it’s cool. Tonight’s concert includes The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion, The Teenagers and Special Guests all for free, 6pm South Street Seaport. [via Bicycle Film Fest]
A series of limited edition bike saddles from Italian manufacturer San Marco in an exclusive first look – the Concor Supercorsa comes in five different colors, each corresponding to one of the three dozen cities participating. The seats have a nabuk (a tyoe of ultrasuede) cover and come in blue (New York), black (London), green (Milan), yellow (Paris) and red (Tokyo), each labeled with its respective city and the BFF logo. There will only be fifty saddles in each color available online for €95 when the festival opens in that city. [via CoolHunting]
The bright blue and orange are the colors on the NYC flag. (see also, the Mets). The colors come from the Dutch flag. And yes, I am a total nerd for NYC history.
