Matching colours
Posted by Joost | Filed under Mechelen
Black and red is one of the best combination of colours, it works with clothes and it works on bikes.

WorkCycles Fr8
Posted by Stefan | Filed under Ghent, design
So imagine – or if you’re in that position: consider – you have a couple of kids that you want to ride around with. And you prefer doing your grocery shopping on two humanly powered wheels. Then you think what? Cargo bike!
Yep, we do like our cargo bikes. But what if you match the above description, but you don’t have room vor a cargo bike, or you think they’re too long or too big to handle? then you might like the WorkCycles Fr8.


Very functional and extremely cool looks – isn’t that first rule in the Design Book? Check out all the details on their website, or have a look at this little video to see one in use.

A bicycle to go shopping with…
Posted by Stijn | Filed under abroad, design
Meet the Ville, a foldable bicycle that can easily be transformed into a shopping cart. It’s designed by Hyuk Jae Chang, who won the bronze medal with it at the IDEA Design Awards. The idea is simple. You ride to the shop, fold the bike and do your groceries with it. Unfold the bike when you finished shopping and of you go!


Thanks to Weekend Knack

Ghent parties
Posted by Stefan | Filed under Ghent
Last weekend was the start of the Gentse Feesten. Which basically means music, dance, theater and whatever you can possibly imagine that is tons of fun, 24/7 in the city for ten days straight. Some things are indoors, but most of the festivities are on the streets and squares throughout the city.
Now Ghent pretty much has a car-free centre – they planned and reorganised it that way in the last couple of decades. A job well done, by the way. Getting into the centre of town by car can be rather nerve wrecking if you’re not used to it.
But now, with all the crowd in town, it is simply ridiculous and stupid to try and get into the centre by car. So you see more people taking their bicycles to get from one concert to the next.
Trying to find a place in packed restaurants is also very smooth if done by bike.

Bicycle parking spaces are packed.

Some nice architecture to be spotted as well in Ghent, like this former art deco theatre/newspaper office.

Merci à ma copine Parisienne Nathalie pour les photos!
