Bicycle-Powered Blender rolls through Missouri


Does your bike make smoothies?

Well ours does! And we've been rolling it across Missouri the last year having all sorts of important folks, such as state legislators, CEOs of hospitals, and young impressionable youth, pedal their way to better health. The bike blender has proven to be a great way to get folks thinking about alternative energy, active lifestyles, and healthy eating. Check out the photos below and see if you recognize your state legislator.

The Perfect Caption

The following photo stands as a digital monument to the mediocrity and laziness that too often manifests in our cities as sub-par sidewalk and roadway conditions. (By the way, this photo is not from the St. Louis region)

Since perfection is truly in the eye of the beholder, we need your help to come up with the perfect caption(s) for this picture. Post a comment and tell us what you think!

Transforming NYC Streets

"...designing for people, designing for pedestrians, designing for cyclists, designing for buses, designing for better mobility, designing for a more sustainable city -- it's all part of a package."
