Sur Place

Was at Mediatmatic in Amsterdam on 21.05.10.

The link kinda explains fairly well what it is, but in short, exhibition on urban bicycle culture, namely fixies. Highlights of the exhibition include the indoor track they set up, 2 bikes set up for gold sprints, and all the bikes hanging in the show.

-general overview of the Exhibtion - 2 bikes set up for gold sprints in front of the projector screen (on opening night, the place was packed, and lots of people tried the gold sprints)

-indoor cycle track - it weaves around the exhibit, and they invite people to give it a go

-at your own risk - yeah, it's not the safest looking per se, and I doubt it'd be up to code/be allowed in North America, thankfully this is Europe

-graffiti wall - they had a graffiti artist do up a whole wall in the place with graffiti marker

-classics - the bikes on display range from old classics to....

-high tech velodrome racer - (on loan)

-custom fixie - like the spoke lacing job
