Concrete Playground

As a child, I equated riding a bike with my younger brother’s cup-cake fuelled birthday parties at the Centennial Park Bike Track. Not so cool. Now as an adult (and after attending the Deus Bike Swap Meet for the Bicycle Film Festival last weekend), bike riding has become something entirely different Now, riding a bike is very cool. Sydney collective GreenUps have decided to pay tribute to all things bike in their September drinks this Tuesday (September 1). The crew are taking over the Alexandria Hotel, Sydney, with bike valet, bike films and photography, tune-ups, giveaways, prizes for ‘best bike’ and (as always) green drinks for green minded Sydneysiders. Couriers, fixed-gear wheelers, BMX Bandits, bush bashers and leisure riders all welcome!
