I finally saw my first bike commercial
If you ever wonder why in America you find so many SUVs and so few
bikes, turn on your TV... All you see is glamorized Supersized Unnecessary Vehicles, which the people are quick to adopt in "monkey see, monkey do" fashion. Anyway what a big surprise I had last night when I tuned this sports channel (mostly replay of the Olympics) and then the commercial showed a smart foldable Dahon Mu single speed. That's awesome! I call them "monkey bikes" (not in the pejorative sense since I own like 3 of them), so I expect many monkeys to follow through. http://www.universalsports.com/ Now I will be splitting my time (outside of the Internet and riding bikes) between the cartoons (not so dangerous as regular channels) and the newly found sports channel. It all makes sense for the Revolution where SMALL IS BETTER!* * This is NOT a revolution commercial. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The 3 C's of successful monkeys... Communicate, Coordinate, Cooperate. http://webspawner.com/users/bananarevolution |

That newly found sports channel also carrys a lot of bicycle racing, notably the Giro d'Italia, if you enjoy watching racing. Their website also has all these videos on demand. Enjoy, Tom |

Enjoy, Tom I noticed, I noticed. They introduce very sharp bikes also. Their stuff is sold under "gear"... Hey, this is NOT a commercial but I support the idea with my money! |

The Dahon Uno is a cool single speed that could really make it big. I just came back in my mundane Boardwalk, and I put it in the shopping cart! Wich means, it won't be gone when I go back! |

Still no SUV commercials so I think they are worthy of the endorsement. One detail though. In the actual athletic competition in Oslo, the runners (not running on oil but bananas) wore a sign that said "EXXON MOBIL"... Funny, if you want to run fast and be fit, drink gasoline! |
