Nice Bikes

A red Minelli on Notre-Dame street in Vieux Montréal. I don't like the break levels setting but it is still a nice ride. 

Random bike racks with style

Surly parked on West 4th Ave in Vancouver. Just in front of 49th Parallel 

Commuter Acknowledgement

We have to acknowledge that bike commuters wish to be bike messengers! Many reasons are keeping us away from that career path. Personally, I was deep into my actual career when I became aware of bike messaging. I don't think I can afford living such a low income.

Although, big thanks to the bike messenger community. You guys brought us a wide range of quality products, from bikes to messenger bags. The paradox now is that some brands offer such expensive commuter products that the average messenger can't afford then.

Living the City

Professional commuters live in the city by choice. They like its interaction, culture, food, bars... They like to meet people on a street corner. They won't use the same route to go to work because it is more fun to bike a different path. Professional commuter won't drive cars because it is inefficient on red lights but also because behind the wheel you can't feel the vibe of the street. Public transits are not an options for real commuters since they are unadapted and they can't supply as much freedom than a bike ride.
