GM recently posted an anti bike ad in a number of college newspapers across the country. The ad is telling college students that riding a bike “sucks” and spending a lot of money they probably don’t have on a new GM car or truck is a better alternative. Hmmmm?

Conscious Commuter folding electric bike
Recently at Interbike (the largest bike show in the US) I met with Gabriel Wartofsky, the designer of the Conscious Commuter folding electric bike that is being created for multi modal transportation.
