PIBAL BICYCLE BY PHILIPPE STARCK AND PEUGEOT

One of my favorite designers Philippe Starck has unveiled a prototype bicycle/scooter that he worked in corroboration with a car company Peugeot. The bike was designed as a part of a free cycle scheme in Bordeaux, France. I have always loved Starck's whimsical sense of design, but not for practicality:( But hey this one makes so much sense! The first 300 units are expected to be manufactured and delivered by Peugeot in June, when they’ll be loaned to citizens for free. Awesome!

Vogue bikes

It's time for bicycle again. I found this round up for the best bike in 2009 from Vogue. I know it's a year old. I don't think there's an expiration date for chicness.

Nice ride!

So beautiful and simple! These bikes deserve a round of applause. These creations by Bertelli, are hand assembled and custom made in New York. Every one unique and made using a mixture of new and old parts. It’s all about the details. The use of leather, wood, metal and suede give the bikes a wonderful tactile element.
