This is it. Urban Cyclist #1 – Bicycle Culture on the Skids.

Just a glance out the window and it’s clear; more cyclists are navigating our cities than ever before. And with them rolls an abundance of ideas and experiences.

For people from all walks of life the bicycle is the great unifier. Brothers and sisters on two wheels, another cyclist is a friendly face in a crowded sea. Through this a wealth of culture is within reach – much of it focused on our shared loved of two wheels.

That is what this is all about. Urban Cyclist is a reflection of cycling culture in modern day cities. It is not about the bike. It is about the rider.
