This is my pink beach cruiser that I take to Burning Man every year.For one week each year, the desert in Nevada becomes the temporary home to over 45,000 inhabitants.
One of my favorites aspects of Burning Man is that pedal-power is the primary mode of transportation in Black Rock City, the name of the town that springs up every year in the Nevada desert.
If you ever wonder what it would be like to live in a city where 80% of inhabitants ride bicycles, Black Rock City during the week before Labor Day is the answer.
I love that Burning Man specifically emphasizes: "Crummy is Cool. Do NOT bring a 'good' bike to the event. Dig: the desert will reduce a valuable bike to a rust bucket posthaste."
Bike parking and riding dominate the Burning Man desert landscape:
I am so jealous! Burning Man has been on my hit list for a while now, but as age and work peck away at my freedom it remains a fantasy for now.
