What would a TV ad promoting alternatives to driving look like? What if people who love cycling and progressive transportation reclaimed ideas like freedom, independence and even patriotism? We decided to give it a shot. Check out our new video, “America, It’s Just Like Riding a Bike.”

    Funny enough, i went through this only recently. Ride a bike to school 14km every weekdays, then got a car, became toxic carbrain, work in auto industry, then realise car is expensive to own, even the budget one, because fuel and servicing is expensive and it will break down eventually. So i take out my first ever bike that’s been in storage for 17 years, a bmx that granted me freedom in my school year, fix it, paint it, and give it an electric motor. Now riding a bike became my favorite activity again.
