    I wish this would happen in the US just to see all the tricked out bicycles.

    I want to see a penny farthing geared to top out at 60. Cycle rickshaws with a subwoofer the size of a refrigerator. Mountain bikes with roll cages, street bikes with 40 chrome rims.

      As more people commute, simple commuter bikes will dominate. It might be boring, but for many, cycling is for getting from a to b. Not some exciting novelty, but an everyday tool. For me, a basket on the back is the best thing ever. Never wear a backpack and get a sweaty back. And somewhere to chuck the lock, or extra layer or gloves. Brilliant.
