It’s Your Ride – Cinecycle Productions Urban Biking Video

I first saw this video months ago actually. In this short put on by Cinecycle Productions funded by Hutchinson tires, we follow two very unique riders through the city.

This seems to be quite an unusual plan and so it is, but for a very good reason. I explained it like this in one of my mails to friends abroad: “I am going there by bike and will represent my granddaughter who is to be born next week.
