Cycling advocacy from (I think) Hungary - is this the real reason we cycle to work then..?

 

[snorri]

Yes.

How did you stumble across that then?

Hilarious! Cycling keeps you fit and sexually active - the message is universal. Like the handlebar moustache reference with the postie too.

As Snorri says though, just what youtube search brought that up?

 

[wafflycat]

Yes! Oh yes! YES!

Here's another link - this set are all from Holland (9 in total).

I agree with the Copenhagenize blog that the Saddam Hussein one is a bit poor, but the rest are a laugh, and say get on your bike without being preachy or doom-mongering. The BMX one using Aphex Twin's "Windowlicker"[1] is a belter.

[1] The Windowlicker video pastiches Hip Hop videos, and has bad language (of the sort you'd expect in gangsta rap) at the start - the cycling videos (first link) don't.

Not strictly speaking cycle promotion, but ads for other products that (I think) provide a good image of cycling (the first as an everyday way to do short journeys, even in bad weather, the second as a fun way to get around that anyone can participate in).

More beer and Bikes, from the New Belgium Brewery.

Does the sunsets, mountain roads etc make anyone else think of those "open road" type car ads?
