Hi,
Matt Seaton who has a weekly column in the Guardian said today "Somehow, cycling combines an ordinary, everyday object with an intense individual experience and an aesthetics of performance in a way that, from the birth of modernism, has moved creative spirits".
Well, I couldn't resist it could I? Here's my take on a postmodern cycling aesthetic that includes:
* conflicts between cyclists and car drivers and cyclists and pedestrians
* the use of young boys as drug couriers on mountain bikes
* the strange urban landscapes that cyclists pass through on their short cuts and cycle paths
* flash cycling where cyclists suddenly converge sometimes at night on mass
* cyclist blogs, webcams and web sites.
Do add to my list if you feel moved.
Best to all,
Bill on bike
