Thought I'd bring some attention to Martino's fantastic site (although I think that everyone who rides on 2 wheels in Toronto (even part-time) reads his site.

Tino's been highlighting some awesome videos lately - I've compiled them all here for you.

Bicycle Polo in Trinity Bellwoods:
A great video of cyclists having fun in the park. Accompanied by the "chase music" from Benny Hill, this is a very entertaining vid.




Petrolius: The Oil Habit
Done in the style of one of those drug commercials. Very creative.




Bike Rush Hour in Amsterdam
Every day in Amsterdam thousands of people ride their bikes to work - it's like Critical Mass every day. This is my dream for BikeFriday. :) It'll take a while, but we'll get Toronto looking like Amsterdam.




Thanks Tino!

The crazy thing is that while it obviously looks more impressive than Toronto, it doesn't really do it any justice. I spent a few days there last year and the streets are seriously clogged with bicycles all day long in the city core. The subway station nearest our hotel had actually just constructed a multi-level bicycle (and only bicycle) parking garage!

The amazing thing about most of those Amsterdam shots is how *quiet* everything is. All those people moving, but almost no noise pollution. Think of what a more pleasant experience the city would be…
