Charikicki is a photo blog that chronicles beautiful shots of women on bikes. Most of the photos are taken in Japan and give us a greater glimpse into their bike culture.

Check out this indoor bike parking facility.

Here’s to NYC catching up with bike parking and traffic laws. On March 4, 2009, the City Planning Commission approved the Bike Zoning for Bike Parking proposal. Soon we’ll have those indoor parking photos as well!

Thanks to Quinn for pointing me to the photo blog.

Oh, hey! Did you hear? We are biking to Floyd Bennett field this Sat 4/18 @ 11am. Join us!

“TAK is a Japanese guy living in NYC. He has been taking amazing photos of NYC bike culture for years. His photo exhibition, New York Bike Dreams, [was] on display in Tokyo. The reception party was insane. Free drinks, good music, great photos, and bike tricks. Here’s a taste. (nothing is sped up or slowed down)

music:
“Let it Roll” by Hieroglyphics
“A Day at The Races” by Jurassic 5
“Marijuana” by Richie Spice, Ratatat, and Diplo”
