    Organic concrete

    There’s little I hate more then pavement.

    Exploiting concrete’s capacity to retain humidity, the material functions as a battery in which the water is released during dry periods. Applied as a surface, organic concrete makes it possible to obtain permeable living surfaces, offering a natural component for public urban spaces.

    The Mike Matas Blog: A New Breed of Bicycle

    Cool looking hybrid bike, for pedestrian city use. It’s not a gas electric, but a bike between the mountain and road varieties, designed to be used in the city. I love my road bike, it’s light, quick, strong, and comfortable, but it is hard to carry stuff on. I tried putting a rack and rigging a bag to the back, but I like riding just the bike – without bags or racks a lot better. And wearing a backpack keeps my shirt from breathing, leaving me to get soaked with sweat. I like how the small wheels allow a huge basket on the back, but I’m the kind of cyclist that wants speed and efficiency, those small wheels would just kill me. The rubber chain is a nice touch, but seems like it would stretch or break too easy.
