Make a Bike Sculpture For A Herne Bay Festival!

Marcel Duchamp it might be argued is the Grandad of Modern Art!

We could make a sculpture for this Festival!

1) Has anyone got an oxy acetylene torch and we could bend and bust stuff and put it back together in a slightly different order?

2) or we could make a bamboo bike with digarded XT parts, which are kept at the back of the shed somewhere.

3) possibly make something else, that is not a bike but was pretending to be a bike for the summer of 2013.

any interest?

The Two Wheeled Carnival of Love

The Two Wheeled Carnival of Love is a collective project between a group of cyclists based in a unique corner of Kent in the UK.

It is not a conventional cycling group.

Oh no...

We have been part of that and didn't like it.

Too restrictive, too conventional, very not us.

We want cycling anarchy - no rules, no pressure, just freedom, fun, exchange of ideas, talking nonsense, some creativity, not taking ourselves too seriously and of course - bikes!

The Cycling Carnival of Love is a mix of road riding and off road riding, whatever takes our fancy. This blog is an evolution of a much earlier blog, which was the seed of an idea, slightly misunderstood, but those that were involved in those early days will hopefully contribute in the same anarchic and random style that gave it a unique style.

There are no members as such, no leaders, no committee, no rules. Anyone can join as long as the harmony and creativity of the group is not disrupted.

We ride as a group, a collective - if something takes our interest we stop to look, we can ride fast at times, especially when being chased by wolves in the dark, yes really.

It is not for everyone, but it is fun, a carnival if you like, movement, noise, laughter and bikes, what is not to like?

So how does it work?

We will post up details of rides, a meeting place, just turn up and join in. There is a core of around 6 or 7 people, with a few that ride from time to time when it suits them. You don't have to contribute any content to the blog unless you want to (there are no rules) but we hope you will as that is part of the project.

Anyway, enough rambling let's unleash the beast and let the carnival begin...
