  1. This reminds me of a short I saw at the Bicycle Film Fest a few years ago called Yogurt vs. Gasoline.

  2. I had missed that Neistat production -- pretty good!

    In California the motorcyclist would have filtered through to the front of the line at every red light.

  5. Can we see specs on the bike? Close up would be nice too. How about stats from her computer? Tire pressure? Heck, what kind of tires? Personally, here in the west I like Panaracers but I imagine on the East Avocets are still popular.
