Here is a preview of a cool little project from Benny Gold. This is a finished product of a project between Benny Gold and Japanese bag maker SAG. Looks pretty cool from what we can see. Wouldn’t mind rocking that while biking around town. Hope we will see more info and pictures of this project very soon…

In the summer of 2009, 13 cyclists from Los Angeles, New York, and San Francisco took their fixies to the Land of the Rising Sun for an ambitious undertaking: A 350-mile tour from Tokyo to Osaka. Their goal (along with survival) was to experience a more intimate kind of travel and make a documentary of their adventure. After watching these videos… I want to do this type of trip so bad….

Bah! Here is the background behind the video..
Two thieves on a motor-scooter flew by and snatched a womans purse on a street in Wenzhou, China. Surveillance video shows a man riding a bicycle. As he was passing by the front of a hotel near where the thievery happened, he stopped, calmly got off his bicycle, picked it up, and then threw it at the thieves. The bicycle hit them, they lost control, and crashed to the ground.
This was such a hilarious video, and pure justice..

If you want to see more, please check our gallery. Thanks to all the readers for their pic submissions.
Well… the world as we know is coming to an end. Korean toy maker and customizer Coolrain designed 12 inch toy figures for Korean retailer Kasina. Toy design based on fixed gear/skate street fashion. So,”cheesy thumbs up”, get your own toy!!!
