This site was formerly Living Room, but before that, it was The Bike People. We have simply returned to our emphasis on bicycling in the city in the context of cultural, social, and environmental sustainability. All our former content is still available through the article indexes on the left.
News snippets, musings, rants, announcements, press releases, and anything else we decide to throw in here...welcome!

01/25/2007: "Knicker Factory Humming"
And that's the the best kind of Hummer, a sewing machine stitching together more Classic Wool Knickers!I expect to have them in hand within the first week in February, and will begin filling all those backorders for you wonderfully patient buyers.
Meanwhile, the search continues for more wool, for hemp, for socks, and for a hat manufacturer who isn't 8,000 fossil-fueled miles away. I think I'm close on the socks....
Also have a very tiny secret project going involving a bit of bicycle hardware, always with the goal of making utility cycling easier, more pleasurable, and even more efficient than it already is. Stay tuned!
