A Big Thank You!谢谢大家!

Frist of all, thank you for your support for CityBikr! We’ve been having 60 unique visits per day on average with occasional outburst for a while now. It’s not much but it means a lot to a small photo blog like this. And when I say “we”, I don’t just mean me, myself and I any more. As you’ve probably noticed that Karl Ke, a.k.a 大师 (the master) has been posting findings from his trips too. Thank you Karl!

A while ago I wrote a bilingual article for 48×15, a magazine in English (now in 2 languages) about fixed gear and urban cycling in China. It’s finally out! You can read it here: http://issuu.com/48×15/docs/48x15vol003_issuu  I also did the “CBNC Style Guide” and “Sack Attack” Chinese translation, which was quite a job cause Adam talks like he’s speaking a totally different cool language. The magazine in print is also free. You can get it from Factory 5 and other bike shops around Shanghai.

Last but not the least, I’ve been riding my Airwalk fixed gear bike for a little over half a year now. It has gone from white to grey, becoming a little rusty and the saddle got dirty and worn out.  It would be great if any bike shop/company can sponsor me. I do ride around the city taking photos and get asked where I got my bike, what brand is it and where to get a bike almost every day. 🙂 (The only money I made so far, from a night ride photo sold to LA based 72andSunny used on marketing for a certain big corporation, has been spent on website hosting, domain and a small upgrade to my camera.)

Finally, I don’t write much and thank you for reading all this. Now enjoy flipping through the photos!

❤ from Lucy

首先,感谢大家对城市骑车人的支持。虽然只是刚刚起步的小小照片博客,我们平均每天还是有60个独立访问量,偶尔还会有小爆发。其次,我说“我们”,是因为我不再是一个人孤身奋战了。可能你已经发现卡尔(昵称大师)也已经在这里发一些他旅途中所见的好玩的车。谢谢大师!

前俩月我写了篇双语文章给48×15。这是一份讲中国死飞和城市骑行的英文杂志(现在开始慢慢是双语了)。现在第三期终于出来,大家可以到此一读电子版 http://issuu.com/48×15/docs/48x15vol003_issuu   后面的 “CBNC 时尚指南”和 “淘宝包包大比拼”也是由我翻译。当时确实是抓破头皮硬挤出来的,因为杂志主编Adam说起英文实在太酷太口语。杂志印刷版也是完全免费的,刚刚起步。在Factory 5和上海各大车店基本都能拿到。图文都欢迎大家指正。

最后,我的Ariwalk死飞已经骑了大半年,已经从白色变为灰色,划痕斑斑,接头处开始生锈坐垫也磨损脏污了。如果有公司/车店能够赞助我的话将不胜感激!我基本每天都会骑车在市区拍照发名片,很多人常常问我我的车是哪里买的,是神马牌子,应该去哪里买车,也算是不错的广告。(拍到现在唯一的收入是卖给洛杉矶 72andSunny 公司用于某大公司客户广告的一张夜骑照片,用在主机和域名上已经花光。)

最后,谢谢大家花时间读完。我不太爱写文字,还是开始看图省事!

Stripping Models For Show – Ain’t Something New世界首个大尺度车模广告

You think they invented the boobs + car promotion? Cyclists saw it on Ads back in 1898, when the little baby automobile was still learning to walk.

露胸车模神马的,不新鲜啦~

脚踏车是以女性胸部为主要元素的第一个商业广告。1898年,捷克艺术家穆查为“摇曳牌脚踏车”绘制的海报,画中女郎的肩带松落、乳房蹦出,观众必须很细心,才能看到藏在草丛里的脚踏车,暗示骑车到乡间有可能碰上艳遇。
