Bicycle Porn travels to the rice fields

7 Oct

Bicycle Porn is back to Barcelona! And I’ve noticed a huge change in the city. If, before I left, there were quite a few bicycle users, the number is now twofold! Seriously, all sorts of bicycles, but most importantly: lots of race, dutch-style, fixed gears…pretty things! And I’ve seen many girls on beautiful looking race bicycles which, I must confess, makes me a little jealous. I’m taking the bicycle everyday now, and it’s hard to believe I haven’t used one in more than three months! What a shame! I’m just waiting a bit to buy a proper one, my contract with Bicing expires in December and then I will have to make the move. I just want to make sure that I work somewhere where I can go by bicycle, that’s important.

Regarding the interesting specimen we have today, it’s a little souvenir from my friend D. who was recently in Vietnam. He saw that one on a rice field, and thought of Bicycle Porn, so here it is. I still got some from Eivissa, they weren’t as ubiquitous as they are in Barcelona nowadays but every so often I saw interesting bicycles.

I’ve also got a bit of a “paranormal” activity bicycle stuff. You remember Frankestein the bike, right? The one I kept seeing everywhere? Well I kept seeing the damn (but admired) bike every time I went into town (which was pretty much everyday) but the thing is…I was on facebook once (yes, I am that mainstream) and what did I see? A photo of a random dude with the bicycle in his room! That was a bit creepy. The thing is that I actually got to meet the guy in question later on at a party. It was at a club so we couldn’t really talk, and I couldn’t really explain the whooole story without looking like a maniac and a stalker but I found out that the bike belonged to a friend of his. End of the story. To be continued, I suppose.

That’s all for now. Have a lovely weekend!!
