What An Amazing ride with Fixie

Recently, our fixie friends Fitra & Galih did an epic long ride ever with fixed gear from Jakarta to Anyer. Approximately they ride about 101.2 Km in 6.5 hours (what an amazing crazy idea).

I suggested to put them on MURI (Indonesia's Record Museum) and also Guiness World Records for what they did with fixed gear. I know there's more better records with bike than these but they ride FIXIE, no brakes at all just an adrenalin and skill of skid & riding. Salute to both of them...!

Benefits of a Bicycle

Last Sunday of June. Goodbye June see you next year.

As you know this is another Sunday like usually on my post before. A day without a cars, motorcycles and common transportation's in our main road. Last Sunday on June 2010 so Car Free Day is more longer than ordinary Sunday with a lot lot of stands from multinational companies, media and even a flea market that sell a variations of bike accessories & equipment also foods & drinks.

So what do you think about Sunday? A laid back day at home or get your ass up and riding your bike or jogging? don't forget to check your bike & stuff and pray. Have a nice safety riding.
