Images via www.collaborativeconsumption.com “Barter, Swap, or Pass on this Book.” These are the first words you see on opening What’s Mine is Yours – The Rise of Collaborative Consumption . Printed on the inner jacket of the book, in the style of a library lending card, this invitation to share your literary possession gives an instant flavour of what this book is all about. The lending card graphic might look old school, but the digital nature of contemporary collaboration is made immediately clear by the option to create an online code to track your copy of the book as it embarks on it… Read the full story on TreeHugger

Above: a piece from the Lifeguard collection. Photos: Courtesy of Leo Battistelli. In 2002, Argentine artist based in Brazil Leo Battistelli began working with the remains of a porcelain factory. During the following eight years, he has experimented with the discarded materials in sculptures, installations, utilitarian objects and prototypes, and has even built his whole studio with the furniture the factory threw away and worked with the venue’s production chain and materials….

Photo credit Edenpictures via flickr. As a new or continuing city cyclist, you are bound to hear the admonishment: “Don’t ride on the sidewalk. It’s dangerous.” I swallowed that Kool-Aid for quite a while. After all, I want cycling to be a respected part of the transport infrastructure, I want cyclists to be generally law abiding and not continually agitate either pedestrians or car drivers (or each other!). But that word “dangerous,” bandied about as it is so … Read the full story on TreeHugger

The basic kayak-carrying trailer costs $669 US. Photo credit Tonys Trailers . When I wrote about cycling and the homeless recently for EnzymePDX, I happened to find out about Tony and his trailers through a work colleague. A one-time Tour de France participant, Tony Hoar is also a tireless bicycle advocate thinking outside the traditional cycling mindset. Cargo hauling is his passion. He has designed some fantastic bike cargo haulers, … Read the full story on TreeHugger

NYC’s bike-share is likely to be similar to other existing programs. The one pictured here is in Taipei. Photo: Flickr , CC Starting with 10,500 Bikes, Then Increasing to 49,000 Biking in New York City has been growing at a good clip in recent years ( check out this graph ), something that the local authorities have been encouraging with new infrastructure and policies. But something in missing from NYC’s bike culture: a bike-sharing program. That… Read the full story on TreeHugger

Photo credit Van Moof . In Amsterdam , a majority of the bikes are black. Look out at the sea of bikes parked at the city’s Central station and you see a lot of black, highly practical and functional omafiets (“grandma bikes”) that most women and men prefer in the Netherlands. There’s a reason you still see so many of these on the streets – they last and last. But style-conscious Dutch bike designers at

Sami recently wrote about the new Sobi bike system ; It is a wonderful concept, and very different from bike sharing systems we have seen in Paris, Montreal and other cities. Urban systems like Velib in Paris or Bixi i n Montreal are expensive to set up and maintain. Sobi (Social Bicycle System) is a simpler system.

Photo credit Arvindgrover @ flickr. Never mind that it is hard to define what a “U.N. city” might be, nor why it would be so horrible. Colorado Republican gubernatorial candidate Dan Maes said this week that Denver will soon become this unsavory thing, and it’s all due to those dang bicycles. Huh? Velophobia, which simmers in Colorado, now seems to be bursting out with Mae’s proclomation that a “bike agenda” will lead the state’s capital city to be a den of…… Read the full story on TreeHugger

This oil painting by Vita Di Milano is from “Women and Wheels” dedicated, according to the artist, to “women’s freedom from the dogmas and the doctrines of religion.” Female cyclists have a hard enough time – we are generally a bit more safety-conscious and reticent when it comes to getting out on city streets , and the athletic among us who do fearlessly dive into bike racing and other cycling sports do so with less support or acknowledgment from the rest of the sporting world than men cyclists get.
