    Default Bicycle Collection (200 years of history)

    I stumbled across this video today, thought I'd share. I'll make sure the wife sees this so she'll never again get on me about all the bikes in our garage! :)

    This dude is legit...not just about a collection, a wonderful philosophy.

    Great video. I always seem to find a bit of "crazy" when coming across collectors like this. The crazy I am talking about is this need to convince the rest of the world what they are collecting is significant. The narrator didn't come across like that. He seemed thoughtful, incredibly articulate and at peace with himself.

    The last words in the film really capture the essence of cycling (at least to me): "You can't do anything else when you're on a bike. You're in another world, a free world, by yourself"

    Beautiful words.
